Identification of Environmental/Social Impacts and formulation of mitigation measures

National and state laws increasingly prescribe environmental and social impact assessments for any kind of development activity with potentially negative impacts. This requirement also affects natural resource managers such as timber companies that produce, transport and/or process timber. A general trend can be observed that timber companies will have to go beyond blue-print approaches to demonstrate their environmental and social commitment in the up-stream and down-stream production process. Each business is different and requires tailor-made impact identification and formulation of mitigation measures to prove the environmental and social acceptability of its management scheme.
