County authorities must designate daily caretakers according to tree ownership, or assign them when ownership is unclear. Public participation is encouraged through donations, tree adoptions, and insurance policies.
Scientific research is allowed as long as it causes no harm. Local governments may build ancient tree parks and integrate them with eco-tourism.
The regulation also decided that signs must be set up. Buying, selling, transporting, digging roots, carving, climbing, and stringing wires are forbidden, along with other damaging acts.
