Notes:
ISO Technical Report (TR 14061) issued in 1998 discusses how forestry organizations can work within the ISO 14001 EMS standards (and other sections of 14000) to establish standards that conform to sustainable forestry principles. It outlines principles, criteria and indicators for achieving sustainable forest management. The Canadian Standards Association Sustainable Forest Management Standards and the AF & PA Sustainable Forestry Initiative Standards are are based on ISO 14001, but also involve performance-based aspects.
