a) New Hampshire Fish and Game Department will supply the following materials: paint, aluminum nails and signs. Upon completion of the project, unused materials are to be returned to New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. b) The property line shall be brushed out approximately five feet (5’) horizontally, two and one half (2 ½’) feet each side of the line and six feet (6’) vertically removing brush, limbs, saplings, etc. so that the line is clearly visible. c) Painting of boundary line blazes shall be generally rectangular in shape, and a minimum of 2” wide x 4” long. Blaze protocol: Blazes fore and aft are online trees, all other trees standing within two feet (2’) to four feet (4’) to the left or right of the line are given a single side blaze facing the line. Painted blaze trees should not be further than thirty feet (30’) to forty feet (40’) apart when possible, and in cases where tree spacing is greater, blazes should remain inter-visible. Trees too small to be blazed may be stripped with paint in order to maintain visibility (see Appendix A). If using flagging to indicate boundary prior to blazing and painting, flagging must be removed once maintenance is completed. Old existing blazes found outside the allowable four feet (4’) limit of a side blaze should not be repainted.
