Abstract

Products and/or exporters of forest products shall be required to export a minimum of twenty percent of their export logs parcel in processed wood. "Processed wood" are wood products that have undergone secondary, semi-finishing or finishing other than logs and boules. The FDA shall not issue an export permit to exporters who fail to comply with the 20 percent requirement. Permits shall only be issued after ascertainment and recording of specification of wood to be exported by the Managing Director of FDA. Certain concession agreements shall remain unaffected by this Regulation.
