3973 The Klamath National Forest is located in a rural district of Siskiyou County, so no contractor's license is required for the operation of earthmoving equipment in clearing or other work for fire prevention purposes, and no presumption exists that the operator of the equipment is an employee rather than an independent contractor; the operator's status as employee or independent contractor is therefore a question of fact.CitationTITUS v THOMAS (Fire Prevention Worker) 126 CA4 1515 [See: LabC 3600, 3602; B&PC 2750.5, 7026, 7028, 7049; Hendy v Losse 54 C3 723; Fraenkel v B of A 40 C2 845]
