First Step – Define Stockpiles
• 2015 Law – Key word and Position –It is illegal to possess Rosewood, Ebony, Palisander
• Only one type of Stockpile –Officially Controlled by the Government
![Page 38: Robert Garner Director ForestBased Solutions, LLC · Brazilian Rosewood •Dalbergia nigra •Atlantic Forest •400 years of use and exploitation •1992 CITES APP I •Most desired](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042711/5f7ee9115563693618770204/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Stockpile Definitions
• Officially Controlled
• Uncontrolled Declared Wood
• Non-Conforming Wood
• Many Decrees over the years
• 2011 – Required Declarations
• Still illegal to possess
• Business Plan Legal Mandate based 2015 law

• Report to Oversight Committee
![Page 48: Robert Garner Director ForestBased Solutions, LLC · Brazilian Rosewood •Dalbergia nigra •Atlantic Forest •400 years of use and exploitation •1992 CITES APP I •Most desired](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042711/5f7ee9115563693618770204/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Reasons for Moving Wood
• Government is taking the risk
• Present an Audited total of marked, coded and secured Official Stockpiles to complete the CITES mandate
• Prevent further laundering of illegal wood
Security for people and locations where Step 2 inventories have been completed
• Create a controlled system for valuing the wood
• Simplifying logistics for any potential sales of wood

Phase 1 – Step 4
• Repeat Step 1
• Officially Audit all systems for controlling wood
• Report to CITES
