## Kenmerken

- FSC risk indicator: 04. Harvesting permits are in place and are issued and registered according to legal requirements. — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)
- Risk conclusion: Non-negligible risk — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)

- Risk threshold: 04. 1.  Identified laws are not consistently upheld by all entities, are often ignored, are not enforced by relevant authorities, or any combination thereof; — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)
- Description of risk: The primary risks in managing natural forests in Brazil include unauthorized and fraudulent licensing, illegal logging in protected areas, inflated harvesting volumes, and harvesting of unauthorized species. Corruption among officials further exacerbates these issues, allowing illegal permits and unlicensed activities. Recent cases, such as the illegal logging in Pará’s Caxiuanã forest and the Akuanduba Operation’s uncovering of fraudulent permits, illustrate these risks. Additionally, forest loss in indigenous lands and conservation units has been rising, particularly in the Amazon region, where a significant percentage of harvesting lacks proper authorization. — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)

2.	Operation Licenses
3.	Logging Permits (AUTEX, AUTEF)
4.	Transport Permit (DOF+)
5.	Roads, Yards and Skidding Trails Maps

- Risk mitigation measure: Verify, through review of associated documents and field inspections, that all required harvesting permits and related documentation are valid, accurate, and reflective of on-the-ground operations.

For example:
 1. Documentation Review
a)	Forest Management Plan (PMFS) and Annual Operating Plan (POA) are approved by the relevant authorities (e.g., IBAMA or state environmental agencies);
b)	Approved species, harvest volumes, and geographic boundaries correspond with observed operations; 
c)	POA aligns with annual quotas and operational timelines;
d)	Operation licenses exist and are valid; 
e)	Licenses comply with local and federal regulations;
f)	Logging permits (AUTEX, AUTEF) are registered and match the declared harvest areas, volumes, and species;
g)	Permit details correspond with official databases or state systems;
h)	Transport Permit (DOF) accurately represents transported timber, including species, volumes, and geographic origin;
i)	Transport permits are used for their intended purpose and are not reused or manipulated;
j)	Roads, log yards, and skidding trails are within the boundaries approved in the PMFS and POA;
k)	Logging waybill records correspond with transport permits (DOF) and declared harvesting activities.

2. Field verification
a)	Harvested areas are compared with maps and plans to ensure activities remain within authorized boundaries;
b)	Stumps and log markings are inspected to verify that logged species match permit details;
c)	Log yards are checked for consistency between documentation and physical inventory;
d)	Transportation vehicles and routes are inspected to ensure compliance with the DOF and other permits;
e)	Maps provided by suppliers align with field conditions;
f)	Waybill details are matched with physical logs during site visits. — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)
