to shut gates and leave no litter. |
2. Always seek permission before entering onto private land.
|
3. Don't interfere with machinery. |
4. Don't litter fields or roads with rock fragments that could
cause injury to livestock or be a hazard to vehicles or pedestrians. |
5. Avoid undue disturbance to wildlife. Plants and animals
may inadvertently be displaced or destroyed by careless actions.
|
6. On coastal sections, whenever possible consult the coastguard
service about tides or local hazards such as unstable cliffs. This
is particularly relevant to the Sheppey and Folkestone sections |
7. When working in mountains or remote areas, follow the advice
given in the booklet "Safety on Mountains" issued by the British
Mountaineering Council, and in particular inform someone of your
intended route. |
8. When exploring underground, be sure you have the proper
equipment and the necessary experience. Never go alone. Report to
someone your departure, location, estimated time below ground and
then your actual return. |
9. Don't take risks on insecure cliffs or rock faces. Take
care not to dislodge rock: others may be below. |
10. Be considerate. Don't leave an exposure unsightly or dangerous
for those who come after you. |
