8.4.8 A diversity of both horizontal and vertical structures and the diversity of species such as mixed stands shall be promoted, where appropriate. The practices shall also aim to maintain or restore landscape diversity.

Preparation of possible information:

       Forests should not only be composed of trees of a single species or a single age, but should have a variety of tree species, trees of different ages, and diverse ecosystems, such as forests, wetlands, grasslands, etc., and diverse stand structures. Horizontal structure refers to the vegetation layers of different heights, such as canopy layer, shrub layer, and herbaceous layer. Vertical structure refers to the distribution pattern of trees, such as, tree ag in groups or scattered.

Therefore, organizations should prepare the following data:

1.         Provide a forest management plan that explains how to promote forest diversity.

2.         Provide stand structure survey data to show the diversity of the horizontal and vertical structure of the forest.

3.     Provides species diversity monitoring data to demonstrate the diversity of plant and animal species in forests

8.4.7 The genetically-modified trees shall not be used.

Note: The restriction on the usage of genetically-modified trees has been adopted by the PEFC General Assembly based on the Precautionary Principle. Until enough scientific data on genetically-modified trees indicates that impacts on human and animal health and the environment are equivalent to, or more positive than, those presented by trees genetically improved by traditional methods, no genetically-modified trees will be used.

8.4.7 不得使用基因改造樹木。

註:根據PEFC大會基於預防原則的決定,禁止使用基因改造樹木。直到有足夠的科學數據顯示基因改造樹木對人類、動物健康及環境的影響與傳統方法改良的樹木相同或更為正面前,禁止使用基因改造樹木。

可能資料的整備:

       PEFC 認證要求組織不得使用經過基因工程改造的樹木。PEFC 採納了預防原則,即在缺乏充分科學證據的情況下,應採取預防措施,以避免潛在的風險。

因此組織應準備以下資料:

1.         提供樹種來源的證明,確保所使用的樹木不是基因改造的。

2.         提供員工培訓紀錄,證明員工了解並遵守相關的規定。

Until enough scientific data on genetically-modified trees indicates that impacts on human and animal health and the environment are equivalent to, or more positive than, those presented by trees genetically improved by traditional methods, no genetically-modified trees will be used.

Preparation of possible information:

       PEFC certification requires organizations not to use genetically engineered trees. The PEFC has adopted the precautionary principle, which states that in the absence of sufficient scientific evidence, precautions should be taken to avoid potential risks.

Therefore, organizations should prepare the following data:

1.         Provide proof of the origin of the tree species and ensure that the trees used are not genetically modified.

2.         Provide staff training records to demonstrate that employees understand and comply with the relevant regulations.

3.     If the organization has used GM trees in the past, the relevant monitoring plan and results should be provided.
