Federal Act on Forest
(Forest Act, ForA)

¹ The de­for­est­a­tion per­mit does not ex­empt its hold­er from the ob­lig­a­tion to ob­tain plan­ning per­mis­sion as stip­u­lated in the Spa­tial Plan­ning Act of 22 June 1979¹⁷.

² Should a con­struc­tion pro­ject re­quire both a de­for­est­a­tion per­mit and an ex­cep­tion­al per­mit to build out­side the build­ing zone, the lat­ter may only be gran­ted in agree­ment with the com­pet­ent au­thor­ity as stated in Art­icle 6 of this Act.
