This Regulation determines the method for marking protected areas, natural values, ecologically important areas and Natura 2000 areas and also defines the form and content of related signs used for their official marking. This text applies mutatis mutandis to the virtual marking of areas. Types of signs are: marking signs that communicate the name and status of the area; informative signs that inform about phenomena, facts and circumstances; directional signs that determine the direction of movement; warning signs that point out rules of conduct, prohibitions and restrictions.
The Annex is also part of this text (Annex 1: Mandatory content and characteristics of signs and mandatory methods of their use for individual types of signs; and Annex 2: Guidelines for the placement, design and exposition of signs).
