NB: Majority of firewood will normally come from garden areas, plus additional availability through the waste of the sawmilling operation. May be a problem in very highly populated areas, where then some reforestation specifically for fire wood production may be necessary Same as medium-large: LCOP See 4.

NB 2: For individually certified small-scale operations (not part of a group certificate) expert engagement for the HCV assessment will be required, which has to be repeated every five years, at the time of certificate renewal. For individually certified operations monitoring will be done directly by the certifier. The group certificate manager will have to monitor the identified HCVs and compliance with any management rules under the HCVs. Annual monitoring is recommended for a start, but possibly a two-yearly monitoring may suffice. Monitoring as to start with (re)confirming sustainable resource use and/or assessing the impact of management rules on unsustainable use. Collection of information has to be through field visits with community meetings plus, if necessary, interviews with specific (user) groups. Specific attention has to be given to community rules associated with HCVs, their enforcement and effectiveness. Monitoring results may lead to requests to the operation/community to improve /change existing rules or develop new/additional ones. 36
