ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT SFM Indicators and High Conservation Values
2019 ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT SFM Indicators and High Conservation Values ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT WOODLANDS PORT HAWKESBURY PAPER 2019 Annual Monitoring Report 1 Executive Summary Safety Environment Forest Management The 2019 Annual Monitoring Report provides a summary of Port Hawkesbury Paper’s safety, environmental, and forest management progress in the Woodlands Unit. Since 2002, Port Hawkesbury Paper (PHP) has been monitoring and reporting on a suite of sustainable forest management indicators to measure its progress towards achieving targets regarding social, economic, environmental, and cultural forest values. Long-term monitoring of these values allows the public to better understand PHP’s forest management activities, and the goals and objectives we set to ensure our forest management is having a positive impact and to implement action items in areas that we are not. This is an important element of continual improvement, which PHP strives for every day. This report also summarizes the effectiveness monitoring program for High Conservation Value Forests (HCVF). These values were first identified in 2008 for Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certification and updated in January 2018 to include new knowledge and information related to species at risk and protected areas. Annual monitoring is conducted to assess the effectiveness of the measures used to maintain or enhance the identified values. 2019 Annual Monitoring Report 2 Contents Executive Summary ........................................................ 1 Contents ........................................................................
