(5) Where high, very high or extreme fuel hazard conditions, the combination of combustible fuel quantity, type, condition, configuration and terrain positioning, pose a significant fire threat on private Timberlands. Cutting and removal of hazardous fuels, including trees, shrubs and other woody material, is needed to eliminate the vertical and horizontal continuity of Understory fuels, Surface Fuels, and/or crown fuels, for the purpose of reducing the rate of fire spread, fire duration and intensity, and fuel ignitability.

(A) An infestation located in a Planning Watershed where SOD had not previously been noted; or
(B) An infestation located in a Planning Watershed that is greater than 1 mile from a known SOD infestation; or
(C) A new infestation within a Planning Watershed where all known previous SOD infestations within the ownership have been or will be subject to control or eradication efforts; or
(D) A location where landowners seek to contain an infestation, even though some landowners have not made proactive efforts within a Planning Watershed, and the Department's Pest Specialist determines that control efforts may be effective.
(E) An isolated infestation is limited to locations in the following counties: Alameda, Contra Costa, Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, Marin, Mendocino, Monterey, Napa, San Mateo, San Luis Obispo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Solano, and Sonoma.
(b) The following are conditions that constitute a financial Emergency as defined in 14 CCR § 895.1:
(1) Potential financial loss of timber previously inoperable or unmerchantable due to one or more of the following factors: access, location, condition, or timber volume that has unexpectedly become Feasible to harvest provided that the harvest opportunity will not be economically Feasible for more than 1 year and provided that such operations meet the conditions specified in 14 CCR §§ 1038.1(c)(5)-(14) and 1038.3(p) and meet minimum Stocking requirements at the completion of Timber Operations.
