<strong>HCV</strong>2.2 FMU is an integral part of a large level landscape forest<br />

Rationale<br />

If the analysis of <strong>HCV</strong> 2.1 does not show the FMU to be a large landscape level forest on<br />

its own, it may still form an integral part of one. If the FMU is lost, the large landscape<br />

level forest is seriously affected.<br />

A FMU which is an integral part of a large landscape forest is considered a <strong>HCV</strong>.<br />

Instructions for forest managers<br />

This guidance should follow the <strong>HCV</strong> 2.1 analysis.<br />

Identification of <strong>HCV</strong> 2.2<br />

Task Guidance Examples<br />

Determine the extent and<br />

condition of forest<br />

surrounding the FMU.<br />

Determine whether the loss<br />

or severe degradation of<br />

the FMU will significantly<br />

impact the large landscape<br />

level forest.<br />

• CITRA Landsat<br />

Image (or other<br />

remotely sensed<br />

imagery of forest<br />

area) based GIS<br />

• Use relevant reports<br />

from forest<br />

conservation<br />

organizations,<br />

donors and<br />

government<br />

agencies like Dinas<br />

Kehutanan,<br />

BAPPEDA, BAPLAN,<br />

Ministry of Forestry<br />

• Look at loss of forest<br />

surrounding the<br />

large landscape<br />

block remaining and<br />

determine what<br />

caused it. Assess<br />

remaining risks and<br />

any role the FMU<br />

would have in<br />

exacerbating them.<br />

• For small FMUs,<br />

check to see<br />

whether the forest it<br />

contains serves as a<br />

corridor or other link<br />

between large forest<br />

blocks, protected<br />

areas etc.<br />

• Seek advice from<br />

stakeholders in the<br />

• Information may be<br />

sought from<br />

BAKOSURTANAL and<br />

others<br />

• Global Forest Watch<br />

forest-cover maps<br />

• In KALTIM the TNC<br />

ecoregion plan; in<br />

Riau and West<br />

Papua, forestry data<br />

from WWF<br />

• A 250,000 ha FMU in<br />

a larger forested<br />

landscape would be<br />

both a large<br />

landscape level forest<br />

and also one whose<br />

loss, or severe<br />

degradation, might<br />

seriously affect a<br />

landscape of several<br />

million ha.<br />

• A 20,000 ha FMU<br />

may possibly not be<br />

a large level<br />

landscape level<br />

forest, yet its loss<br />

could seriously<br />

impact a 100,000 ha<br />

area.<br />

• A small FMU may
