Responsible project designer of forest roads

A forest road may only be designed by a responsible project designer for technical project designing of appropriate level and field of education. The title of responsible project designer for technical project designing is obtained by an individual upon entering the Chamber and entering in the register of the authorised engineers or by expanding the authorisation in the register of authorised engineers.

A responsible project designer is responsible for every project design which he prepared and confirmed with his signature and stamp. A responsible project designer also guarantees that the project design is in compliance with spatial planning documents, building regulations and project conditions to fulfil all crucial requirements and that it is in compliance with detailed reports.

A responsible head of the project is responsible for mutual harmonisation of all project plans confirmed by his signature and stamp.

A project designer who undertakes the preparation of the project documentation must appoint responsible project designer for all plans that constitute the project. If only one responsible project designer is responsible for the preparation of project documentation, this project designer also acts as the responsible head of the project.
