Applying for an exemption from nature conservation
Description

As the higher nature conservation authority, the state administration office designates and manages nature conservation areas, but can also grant exemptions from the prohibitions of nature conservation areas and issue species protection exemptions and exemptions. In some cases, the administrative districts and independent cities are also responsible for granting exemptions under species protection law.
Forest, exemption from prohibitions
Mowing a forest meadow is prohibited. An exemption from the prohibition can be approved by the Lower Forestry Authority if there are appropriate reasons (e.g. to obtain hay). Other exemptions from prohibitions of the Forest Act and the Field and Forestry Regulations can also be applied for (e.g. to hold events or to close forest areas).
Furthermore, you can contact the Department of Agriculture and Forestry if you want to draw on a small area of forest or want to know whether an area has forest status.
