In plain language

You can share forest imagery without a permit only if it is photo or video, contains no buildings, vehicles, or human activity (except forestry), and you are either the landowner or were hired directly by the landowner.

Requirement as structured

The forest land exemption only applies to photos or films that do not contain vehicles, buildings, facilities, operations, or human activities (except forestry-related), and the material must be ordered or shot by the landowner.

Original regulatory text
