The Sustainable Biomass Program (SBP) has published the SBP-endorsed Regional Risk Assessment (RRA) for B.C.
The Wood Pellet Association of Canada (WPAC) initiated the RRA in 2018 to verify the legality and sustainability of uncertified feedstock in B.C. Hopkin Forest Management Consulting Ltd. and a team of independent natural resource and certification professionals formed the Working Body responsible for developing the RRA.
SBP-endorsed RRAs are a key part of SBP’s focus on identifying and mitigating risks associated with sustainably sourcing feedstock for biomass pellet and wood chip production. RRAs evaluate an entire geographic region and determine the risks associated with sourcing feedstock from that region. Thus, individual biomass producers do not need to conduct risk assessments and consistency between biomass producers’ risk assessments is guaranteed.
