>I would like to know if there are any codes of practice (timber harvesting >regualtions and planning guidelines etc) available electronically. >Dr Christopher Dean Dr Dean, The Australia's Forest www site (http://www.erin.gov.au/land/forests/forests.html) has forest management information available electronically. See for example - www.erin.gov.au/land/forests/cra/vic/eastgipp/res_econ/res2.html#2.4 for synopsis of Victoria's Code of Forest Practices - www.erin.gov.au/land/forests/cra/vic/eastgipp/res_econ/res.html (Resource and Economics Report for East Gippsland Comprehensive Regional Assessment) describes forest management practices in East Gippsland - www.erin.gov.au/land/forests/dfa/nswdfa/append5.html (NSW Defered Forest Areas) has an appendix on NSW Timber Harvesting Planning and Regulatory Procedures If you do a key work search from www.erin.gov.au/search.html you should find numerous references/links to codes of practice. The NAFI and state forest agencies (find url's at http://www.erin.gov.au/other_servers/other_servers.html) may also be of use.
