CONTROL OF THE SUPPLY CHAIN Sample Clauses

CONTROL OF THE SUPPLY CHAIN. Systems to control the supply chain must provide credible assurance that timber products can be traced throughout the supply chain from harvesting or point of import to the point of export. It will not always be necessary to maintain physical traceability for a log, log load or timber product from the point of export back to the forest of origin, but it is always needed between the forest and the first point of mixing (e.g. a timber terminal or a processing facility).

CONTROL OF THE SUPPLY CHAIN. Systems to control the supply chain must provide credible assurance that timber products can be traced through the supply chain from the point of harvesting or legal import to the point of export. It will not always be necessary to maintain physical traceability for a log, log load or timber product from the point of export back to the forest of origin, but it is always needed between the forest and the first point of mixing (e.g. a timber terminal or a processing facility). 2.1. Use rights: There is clear delineation of areas where forest resource rights have been allocated and identification of the holders of those rights. Does the control system ensure that only timber originating from a forest area with valid and permissible use rights enters the supply chain? Does the control system ensure that enterprises carrying out harvesting operations have been issued appropriate use rights for the forest areas concerned? Are the procedures for issuing use rights and the information on issued use rights and their holders available in public domain? 2.2. Systems to control the supply chain: There are effective mechanisms for tracing timber through the supply chain from the point of harvesting to the point of export. The approach for identifying material may vary and is likely to range from the use of labels for individual items to the reliance on documentation accompanying a load or batch. The selected method should reflect the type and value of material and the risk of contamination with illegal or unverified material. Are all the supply chain alternatives identified and described in the control system? Are all stages in the supply chain identified and described in the control system? Are methods defined and documented to (a) identify the product origin and (b) prevent mixing with material from unknown sources in the following stages of the supply chain? — timber in the forest, — transport, — interim storage, — arrival at primary processing facilities, — processing facilities, — interim storage, — transport, — arrival at point of export. Which organisations are in charge of controlling the timber flows? Do they have adequate human and other resources for carrying out the control activities?
