To promote a more reasonable and rational implementation of the guidelines, the following paragraph is added to Section 3 of DENR Administrative Order No. 59, dated June 22, 1990, to read as follows:

"The transport agreement may be dispensed with if immediately prior to loading any forest product, the conveyance owner notifies the CENRO concerned of the planned shipment, in which case, the CENRO shall issue instead a clearance for the transport of the forest products.  In instances, however, where the conveyance is primarily engaged in the transport of forest products, a certificate of transport agreement must at all times be executed in accordance with this provision."

This Order shall take effect immediately.

Adopted: 7 August 1990
