Other reasons for rejecting residues (field cleaning, etc.)
1. While clearing the fields, I found growing spruce, aspen, etc. on the parcel of land. After cutting such wood, can I indicate it in the accounting document as firewood, logs, etc.?
No. Firewood, logs, and the like are considered raw wood. In accordance with Article 2, paragraph 35 of the Law on Forests, “timber from tree stems cut down on green forest land is intended for the preparation of wood products”.
Therefore, when submitting a declaration of other residues (field cleaning, etc.), raw materials generated outside the forest or its area cannot be named as if they originated from the forest – for example, by indicating “firewood”. In such a case, the declaration will not be approved.
2. If I purchased raw materials from a company that performed cleaning work on a parcel of land that does not belong to it, do I have to submit a declaration of the initial acquisition of raw materials?
No. The declaration must be submitted by the company that performed the cleaning work, because it has an agreement with the original owner of the raw material – this may be:
- the original owner, manager or user of the parcel of land where the raw material for biomass products was generated,
- or the original producer of raw materials for biomass products at the site where by-products from wood and other industries are generated.
3. Can I declare raw materials in the RED BP scheme if I have concluded a contract with a company that won a tender for cleaning drainage ditches?
Yes. If you have concluded a contract with a company that won a public procurement tender for cleaning drainage ditches, you can complete the declaration of primary acquisition of raw materials.
