Amendment 213 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 8 – paragraph 3 – subparagraph 2
The national forestry accounting plan shall contain all the elements listed in Annex IV, section B and include a proposed new forest reference level based on the continuation of current forest management practice and intensity, as documented between 1990-2009 per forest type and per age class in national forests, expressed in tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year. It shall be based on the sustainable forestry management principles and the national strategies published by Member States in this area up to the time of submission of the forest reference level and on long- term analyses carried out with a view to fulfilling the objective set out in Article 4.1 of the Paris Agreement, namely to achieve a balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases in the second half of this century. The report shall document practices per forest type and age or diameter class in national forests. The report shall set out the projected wood harvest levels, where possible breaking them down between commercial harvesting and non-commercial direct harvesting by households and/or on the basis of national forest inventory data and the related historical data series. On that basis, the report shall specify a forest reference level expressed in tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year.

Amendment 223 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 8 – paragraph 4
4. Member States shall demonstrate consistency between the methods and data used to establish the forest reference level in the national forestry accounting plan and those used in the reporting for managed forest land. At the latest at24 months after the end of the period from 2021 to 2025 or from 2026 to 2030, a Member State shall submit to the Commission a technical correction of its reference level if necessary to ensure consistencyand the national forestry accounting report if necessary to ensure consistency. In particular, where the result of the calculation referred to in paragraph 1 is negative and where the commercial harvest levels recorded over the period are lower than the projected levels set out in the accounting report, the harvest level in the report shall be adjusted and a corresponding adjustment shall be made to the projected reference level. This compulsory adjustment shall consist in bringing the projected harvest levels in the report down to a level where, following final corrections, either the result of the calculation referred to in paragraph 1 or the disparity between the projected harvest levels, as corrected, and the harvest levels recorded is remedied. This compulsory adjustment may also be made on the basis of total harvest levels, where those levels have been established with an equivalent or greater degree of accuracy than that achieved for commercial harvest levels.
