CSA—Canadian Standards Association (Withdrawn)

Standards for Forest Management:

This standard, formerly owned and administered by CSA Group, is withdrawn. PEFC Canada now has ownership of the technical content of the withdrawn standard and has revised the certification system in line with PEFC requirements. The PEFC Canada Certification system is now undergoing the PEFC International assessment process, which includes a consultation period and is carried out by an independent PEFC Registered Assessor. It must pass this process and be approved by the PEFC General Assembly before it can achieve endorsement. 

 Certifications completed under the withdrawn CSA Z809 standard remain valid during this transition.

The most current information on the PEFC International assessment of the PEFC Canada Forest Certification System can be found on the  PEFC Canada website (www.pefccanada.org).
