The 20-m distance referred to in section 75, the first paragraph of section 76 and section 77 is measured from the limit that separates the stand from the open peat bog with a pond, a marsh, a riparian swamp, a lake or a permanent watercourse or from the upper limit of the bank of the intermittent watercourse. In the presence of a riparian ecotone, the measurement is made from the limit of the ecotone farthest from the environment to be protected.
