18、nagement (SFM) Standard, CAN/CSA-Z809, Sustainable Forest Management: Requirements and Guidance. This handbook includes all of the requirements and guidance found in the 2002 edition of CAN/CSA-Z809, but it also provides further information and implementation ideas on specific components of the Stan

20、t 1.4 (newly introduced in the 2002 edition) on protected areas and sites of special biological significance, and the identification of values, objectives, indicators, and targets.It is hoped that providing additional ideas and information on some of the more complex parts of the Standard will help

21、organizations to be better prepared to proceed with implementation. However, it is essential to remember that this document is only an information document; its contents should not be interpreted as setting out requirements beyond those of CAN/CSA-Z809. The sole requirements of the Standard are thos

It supersedes the first editions of both CAN/CSA-Z808, A Sustainable Forest Management System: Guidance Document, and CAN/CSA-Z809, A Sustainable Forest Management System: Specifications Document, published in 1996. This Standard outlines the requireme

It also outlines the auditing process used to determine whether the SFM (sustainable forest management) requirements are implemented at the DFA level

While this Standard provides guidance to users rega

35、rding the certification, requirements for certification and the decision as to their acceptability rest with the registration bodies. This Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee on Sustainable Forest Management, under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on the Environment,

This Standard has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada.DefinitionsStandard a document, established by consensus and approved by a recognized body, that provides, for common and repeated use, rule

Canadian Standards AssociationThe SFM Essentials Section 3February 2005 5Section 3 Introduction to and Scope of CAN/CSA-Z809Clause 0 from CAN/CSA-Z809 Introduction0.1 GeneralCanadas forests make a significant contribution to our quality of life, the integrity of our environment, and

39、the supply of paper and building materials and other forest products, both at home and abroad. Throughout the country, these forests are owned predominantly by the people of Canada, a diverse nation that has hundreds of forest-dependent communities with diverse forest types and circumstances. The fu

40、ture of our forests is important to all Canadians, including Aboriginal peoples who have a significant relationship with the land.Across Canada, the provinces have rigorous legislation and policies for protection, conservation, and sustainable management of forests. This legislative framework is bei

41、ng continuously improved, as is forest management in Canada. In addition to using regulatory tools, organizations benefit from using voluntary tools, such as this Standard, to help them achieve sustainable forest management (SFM). This Standard gives organizations a system for continually improving

42、their forest management performance and engaging interested parties in a focused public participation process. Certification to this Standard involves regular and rigorous independent, third-party certification audits. 0.2 High Degree of Public InvolvementCSA requires extensive public participation

43、in development of its Standards. This Standard was first published in 1996, following years of discussion and work, using an open and inclusive process managed by CSA. One-quarter of the CSA SFM Technical Committee membership consisted of timber producers, including woodlot owners, while the remaind

44、er were scientists, academics, and representatives of the provincial and federal governments, as well as environmental, consumer, union, and Aboriginal representatives. In the fall of 1995, special consultations with non-governmental and environmental organizations were conducted to obtain input int

45、o the development of this Standard. In addition, a Canada-wide public review of this Standard generated considerable interest, with CSA distributing over 1500 copies of the draft Standard in response to requests for review. Public meetings were held in Montral, Toronto, and Vancouver to seek further

46、 input. The first edition of this Standard was then revised and published in the fall of 1996.PLUS 1136 Canadian Standards Association6 February 2005In 2000, when CSA set out to review and improve upon the original Standard, it sought and incorporated public input once again. It also strengthened th

47、e conservation representation on its SFM Technical Committee, which now includes representatives from Wildlife Habitat Canada, the Canadian Wildlife Federation, and the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters. The need for public participation is also strongly emphasized in the Standard itself. In

48、 fact, this Standard requires organizations to seek comprehensive, continuing public participation and to work with Aboriginal peoples at the local community level. The public identifies forest values of specific importance to environmental, social, and economic concerns and needs. The public also t

49、akes part in the forest planning process and works with the organization to identify and select SFM objectives, indicators, and targets to ensure that these values are addressed. The public participation requirement of this Standard is one of the most rigorous of its kind in certification standards in the world today. Because Canadian forests are primarily publicly owned, it is vital that a Canadian forest certification standard involve the public extensively in the forest management planning
