Legal requirements related to biodiversity conservation, protected sites, and the protection of endemic, rare, threatened, or endangered species and their habitats are complied with. — [bron]() - Risk conclusion: Non-negligible risk — [bron]() - Geopolitical scale: Brazil — [bron]() - Source type: Forest Plantation-public, Forest Plantation-private, Forest Plantation-SLIMF — [bron]() - Risk threshold: 16. 1.     Identified laws are not consistently upheld by all entities, are often ignored, are not enforced by relevant authorities, or any combination thereof; — [bron]() - Description of risk: While the risk of non-compliance is higher among small-scale forest properties, the risk is not limited to this category. Across all private forest lands in Brazil, weak enforcement capacity and limited validation of the CAR significantly constrain effective oversight. Despite widespread CAR registration, only a very small proportion of properties have undergone formal validation by state authorities, limiting the ability to confirm compliance with Legal Reserve and Permanent Preservation Area requirements. This systemic gap in verification and enforcement creates a non-negligible risk for plantation forests on private lands as a whole, including medium and large properties, with potential adverse impacts on protected habitats and species. — [bron]() - Type of verifier: Document verification — [bron]() - Mitigation requirement level: Recommended — [bron]() - Associated documents: 1. Property Area - Georreferenced file 2. Conservation unit management plan — [bron]() - Risk mitigation measure: Verify documentation that timber sourcing areas do not overlap with protected areas or conservation units in a manner inconsistent with applicable legal and conservation requirements. For example: a) Boundaries of timber-supplying areas are obtained and analyzed to identify overlaps with protected areas, conservation units (CUs), buffer zones, or priority conservation areas; b) Permitted uses applicable to the relevant CU category are verified and documented where overlaps with conservation units or buffer zones are identified; c) Clarification from Competent Authorities is sought when overlaps occur with sustainable-use conservation units or buffer zones and permitted land uses are not clearly defined under Federal Law No. 9.985/2001 or where no approved management plan exists; d) Applicable local legislation is complied with in all cases; e) Communication efforts with authorities are documented as part of the due diligence process. — [bron]() - Other relevant information: N/A — [bron]() - Source workbook row: 16 — [bron]() ## Relaties - Onderdeel van: [FSC Risk Assessment voor Brazilië — 2-0]() (`isPartOf`) - Over: [Brazilië]() (`about`) - Over: [FSC Risk Assessment indicator 16 — Legal requirements related to biodiversity conservation, protected sites, and the protection of endemic, rare, threatened, or endangered species and their habitats are complied with.]() (`about`) - Over: [Brazilië: FSC-indicator 16 — non-negligible risk]() (`about`) - Vermeldt: [Mitigation measure onder het FSC Risk Assessment Framework]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Non-negligible risk onder het FSC Risk Assessment Framework]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-public — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-private — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) - Vermeldt: [Forest Plantation-SLIMF — FSC Risk Assessment Brazilië]() (`mentions`) ## Identificaties - FSC Risk Mitigation row: `FSC-RA-BRA-02-2026 row 16` — [resolver]() - FSC risk indicator: `16` — [resolver]() ## Bronnen - [Bron](): Official FSC Risk Assessment FSC-RA-BRA-02-2026; Risk Mitigation worksheet row 16. ## Andere representaties - [HTML]() - [Schema.org JSON-LD]() - [Volledig RDF JSON-LD]() - [Turtle]()
