Access routes are created to transport harvested timber from the forest to the respective loading areas. These tracks are usually unpaved roads which are maintained or kept available for long periods for accessing forest stands.
Surface vegetation acts as a fuel source and greatly increases the risk of fire and the speed of spread.
In general, the problem starts with a few "weak" trees that are infested by pests. Over time, the infestation spreads and the damage grows. For this reason, selected trees should be removed from the forest as quickly as possible.

Line maintenance involves keeping electricity and overhead cables, underground cables, pipelines and railway lines clear. The areas which need to be kept clear are often difficult to access.
This often refers to stump milling, tree stump shredding or root stock recycling. This may involve root stock processing with a stump grinder on site and leaving the ground material behind.
