The Rainforest Alliance is conducting forest management and chain of custody certification assessments of the Syndicat des Producteurs de Bois de la Gaspésie (SPBG) located in New Richmond, Québec, Canada. The assessment will be implemented during the week of October 27th 2014.

The forest management certification assessment will reassess the environmental, silvicultural and socioeconomic aspects of the forests managed by the SPBG using the Rainforest Alliance locally adapted standard for assessment of Forest Management Standard for the Great Lakes – St. Lawrence Region (August 2010).

Your input will be valuable at any stage of the assessment process, but we would prefer to receive your comments either prior to the assessment, during the assessment, or prior to October 31st 2014 so that we can take them into consideration in reaching a certification decision by the end of January 2015.
