Disturbance/RESULTS316 Disturbance Results Screen
Added ‘Disturbance Complete’ check box
Business Case
Allows for identifying completed harvesting activities and completion of harvest on entire opening
To be checked when harvesting on entire opening is complete
Checking the box will trigger automated cut block status change to LC (FTA)
Requires Disturbance End Date if checked
Known issues
Appears that there is an issue with Disturbance area being displayed on RESULTS315/316 if dates are missing
Note Licensees are only obligated to report harvesting when logging is complete on the opening. Licensees may choose to report partial harvest of an opening. Licensee will have to report partial harvest in situations where there is a desire to report FC and or milestones on SUs completely harvested
For XML/GML submissions:
Licensee’s must submit the start and end date of the harvesting activity. 
If the harvesting is complete for the entire opening, then they should set the harvestCompleteOnCutBlock field to TRUE. 
If the harvesting is not complete for the entire opening (and there are plans to harvest the rest later), then they should set the harestCompleteOnCutBlock field to false 6

Activities impacted: PC (Pest Control), SU (Survey), FE (Fertilization)
Area for treatments listed above may exceed 125% of opening gross area
Edit rule still applies to remaining silviculture treatments: Activity Treatment Unit (ATU) areas must be with 125% of opening gross area
In situations where no opening exists then an opening must be submitted to RESULTS and the activity must be submitted to that opening. 1
