FOREST CODE COMPLIANCE FLOWCHART FOR RURAL PROPERTIES > 4 FISCAL MODULES

This document is a compliance flowchart for rural properties larger than 4 fiscal modules regarding the Forest Code, outlining the requirements for Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) and Legal Forest Reserves (LFR).

• The flowchart establishes a deadline of 05/05/2016 for rural property identification using georeferenced maps and outlines different regularization paths based on whether Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) or Legal Forest Reserves (LFR) were consolidated before 07/22/2008.
• Regularization of Legal Forest Reserves (LFR) can be achieved through several methods: designating surplus areas from other properties as Environmental Reserve Quotas (CRA), using conservation easement agreements, buying land in a Protected Area to donate to the Government, or through natural regeneration and planting native species.
• The document defines specific restricted use areas that require preservation, including watercourses, springs, lakes, ponds, veredas, hill tops, plateaus, altitudes above 1,800 m, and slopes with a declivity greater than 45º.
