Harvesting the Future through Education DONATE TODAY @ NorthAmericanForestFoundation.org JOIN THE CONVERSATION NWFA REVIEW Continued from page 59 It is important to note that all parties in the supply chain are subject to penalties and fines for noncompliance with Lacey. In addition, fines can be assessed for both civil and criminal violations. The maximum civil fine is ,000 per violation, with possible imprisonment of one year. The maximum criminal misdemeanor fine is ,000 per violation, with possible imprisonment of one year. The maximum criminal felony fine is ,000 per violation, with possible imprisonment of five years. The best way to ensure the materials you are using comply with Lacey is to ask for a chain of custody for all wood used, especially those species that are not native to the United States. In this way, you can refuse to use any wood that does not have a chain of custody, and will be practicing due care as required by Lacey. It is also important to note that Lacey compliance may change from time to time, and it is your responsibility as a Hardwood professional to stay informed. For specific and up-to-date regulations regarding the Lacey Act, visit www.fws.gov/international/laws-treatiesagreements/us-conservation-laws/lacey-act.html. The National Wood Flooring Association has more information about the Lacey Act available through NWFA University, an online training platform that is convenient and affordable.
