1 84 FOREST REGULATION 



These Detail Plans differ from the General Plans ; they do not dis- 

 cuss the conditions and reasons for doing, establish no policies, 

 merely outline an orderly execution. The number of Detail Plans 

 is not fixed, it varies with the nature of the property and lines of 

 work in hand, so that it may vary from year to year even on the 

 same property. The following will suggest treatment of the topics 

 in these plans : 



i. Plan of Organization of Help. 



This is a brief tabular statement, practically a list of the various 

 men employed on the forest, their names, date of employment, salary, 

 station, and principal task. Extra help, such as labor in building 

 roads, etc., is not enumerated. The summation presents cost of 

 regular organization. 



2. Detail Plan of Protection. 



Applies only to one particular year. It enumerates: money 

 allowed for protection; name and number of regular men available, 

 number or name of district and area of country which each man 

 covers, extra help for each district, where stationed, for what period 

 employed, and at what salary. 



Telephone lines in each district, location of these and connec- 

 tions, look-out stations with special men, connections and district 

 covered ; this latter best stated by Protection Plan Map. Number 

 and location of stores or "caches" of tools and other supplies. Name, 

 location, phone number, etc., of persons at stores, farms, etc., with 

 whom arrangements have been made as to supplies, transportation 

 and help ; important points of arrangements made. Name and 

 location of persons engaged to assist in paid or unpaid co-operation. 

 A map as part of Plan of Protection, showing topography, roads, 

 and trails, Ranger and Guard stations, look-outs and their effective 

 range ; ranches, hamlets and the number of men and teams available 

 at each. 



The Detail Plan usually recites these items for the entire forest 

 and also for each protective district. It should also add the import- 

 ant points in instructions so that each person knows what to do, to 

 whom to report, where to call for help. In these instructions the 

 authority to incur expenses should be clearly indicated.
