Transport of Sample Clauses

Transport of logs or processed wood (a) When the shipment is ready for loading, the operator’s staff (i.e. log measurer or sawmill tally man) complete a waybill form by: — filling out the appropriate fields (barcode, species, diameter and length), — sticking the bar-coded stickers to the waybill in the appropriate places, — listing all the bar-coded tag numbers or the bar-coded labels affixed to the wood products making up the load — these numbers need to be copied in by hand, — dating and signing the waybill. (b) Logs or wood products must be loaded in a way that enables the bar codes to be read by a PDA scanner without removing the load from the truck. Therefore either a space must be left between the end of the logs and the truck headboard (depending on the truck type) or all the logs will need to be loaded with the tags at the rear end, so they are clearly visible. This is to facilitate checking of the tag numbers by the COCS log scalers and the FDA when the truck is en route. LVD does 100 % documentary verification of the waybills/delivery notes issued and received and has mobile teams of log scalers/inspectors who check a sample of all loads transported. The species, log diameter and length are recorded. At the same time, the Liberian police will check that all loads passing checkpoints have the required waybills with them.
