34. The travel of logging machines is prohibited over a width of at least 6 m alongside an open peat bog without a pond or an intermittent watercourse, except in any of the cases provided for in paragraph 1, 2, 4 or 5 of section 32. The 6 m-width is measured from the perimeter of the peat bog or the upper limit of the bank of the intermittent watercourse.
Harvesting is however allowed in that 6 m strip of land. However, the vegetal cover and the stumps must be preserved to minimize disturbances in the soil and water regime.
