If the village meeting decides that the tree can be cut down, then it can be done. If the tree is still in a leafy state (alive), residents who want to cut down the tree must ask the Village Kelian for an inspection. The Village Head then sends three people to inspect the tree. The inspectors are one from Bahan Luanan, one from Bahan Duluan/Keliang Desa and one from Bahan Tebenan. The tree may be cut down if the results of the inspection show that 80 percent of the tree is dead and only 20 percent is still alive and is not the main wood shaft. However, it must be approved by all three parties. If one of the parties/materials does not agree, the felling will be postponed for a few months. However, it is permissible to cut down trees if they are used to build public facilities. The right to tumapung is a privilege given to a newly married person.
