Clearing is compulsory in forested municipalities whose forests are either classified by administrative decision as particularly vulnerable to fires or included in the forest areas listed by the Forest Code and located in the Aquitaine, Corsica, Languedoc-Roussillon, Midi-Pyrénées, Poitou-Charentes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur regions, and the departments of Ardèche and Drôme. The definitions of plant formations and the zoning procedure are contained in circular DERF/SDF/C2002-3017 of 24 September 2002. These areas are demarcated when drawing up the plan for the protection of forests against fires or on the basis of a specific study with regard to classified wood (outside the scope of Article L. 321-6 of the Forest Code).
