Regulations as to obtaining stone, earth, sand, clay or turf from Crown land.

1. No person shall cut or remove earth, sand, clay, or turf, or collect, extract, split, blast or remove stones from any land not under lease from the Crown, without having previously obtained a written permit from the Director of Public Works, and such permit must be kept by the head workman on the ground and shall be pro- duced whenever required by the Director of Public Works or any officer deputed by him, or by the police, and shall have stated in it the period for which it will be available.

2. The place where stone, earth, sand, clay or turf is to be obtained shall, where practicable, be stated in the permit.

3. As each case may require special precautions, the permit- holder must obey any special instructions of the Director of Public Works indorsed on the permit.

4. Permits for the obtaining of stone will be limited to the collection of loose boulders.

5. Any permit may be limited to the collection of a stated quantity.

6. No stone shall be rolled on to, or left deposited upon, any public road or allowed to roll over any hill-slope to the danger of life or property or to the detriment of trees.

7. All escarpments caused by the cutting on unleased Crown land must be sloped uniformly and properly turfed upon completion of the excavation.

8. Any infringement of these regulations will entitle the Director of Public Works to cancel and withdraw the permit without notice, and will render the person to whom the permit was granted liable upon summary conviction to a penalty not exceeding one hundred dollars.

9. The Director of Public Works shall have power at any time to cancel and withdraw a permit, without giving any notice or assign- ing any cause for such withdrawal.

10. The permit-holder is to provide a competent foreman, who is to remain on the ground during the whole of the time the men are obtaining the material, for the purpose of ensuring that the work is carried out without undermining or prejudically affecting or endangering the stability of any bank or of any land or property adjoining, and to prevent the rolling of stones over any hill-slope to the danger of life or property or to the detriment of trees, and to see that all regulations and conditions attached to the permit are properly complied with.

11. The charges to be made in respect to each and every permit granted by the Director of Public Works under these Regulations shall be determined by him in each case.
