If it is not possible to differentiate between harvested wood products in the land accounting categories of afforested land and managed forest land, a Member State may choose to account for harvested wood products assuming that all emissions and removals occurred on managed forest land. Harvested wood products in solid waste disposal sites and harvested wood products that were harvested for energy purposes shall be accounted for on the basis of instantaneous oxidation. Imported harvested wood products, irrespective of their origin, shall not be accounted for by the importing Member State ("production approach"). For exported harvested wood products, country-specific data refer to country-specific half-life values and harvested wood products usage in the importing country. Country-specific half-life values for harvested wood products placed on the market in the Union should not deviate from those used by the importing Member State. Member States may, for information purposes only, provide in their submission data on the share of wood used for energy purposes that was imported from outside the Union, and the countries of origin for such wood.
(a) 2 years for paper; (b) 25 years for wood panels; (c) 35 years for sawn wood.
1. For the calculation of the background level, the following information shall be provided: (a) historical levels of emissions caused by natural disturbances; (b) the type(s) of natural disturbance included in the estimation; (c) total annual emissions estimations for those natural disturbance types for the period from 2001 to 2020, listed by land accounting categories in the period from 2021 to 2025 and land reporting categories in the period from 2026 to 2030; (d) a demonstration of the time series consistency in all relevant parameters, including minimum area, emission estimation methodologies, coverages of carbon pools and gases.
2. The background level is calculated as the average of the 2001-2020 time series excluding all years for which abnormal levels of emissions were recorded, i.e. excluding all statistical outliers. The identification of statistical outliers shall be undertaken as follows: (a) calculate the arithmetic average value and the standard deviation of the full time series 2001-2020; (b) exclude from the time series all years for which the annual emissions are outside twice the standard deviation around the average; (c) calculate again the arithmetic average value and the standard deviation of the time series 2001-2020 minus the years excluded in point (b); (d) repeat points (b) and (c) until no outliers can be identified.
3. After calculating the background level pursuant to point 2 of this Annex, if emissions in a particular year in the periods from 2021 to 2025 for land accounting categories afforested land and managed forest land as set out in Article 2(1) exceed the background level plus a margin, the amount of emissions exceeding the background level may be excluded in accordance with Article 10. The margin shall be equal to a probability level of 95 %. 4. The following emissions shall not be excluded in the application of Article 10: (a) emissions resulting from harvesting and salvage logging activities that took place on land following the occurrence of natural disturbances; (b) emissions resulting from prescribed burning that took place on land in any year of the period from 2021 to 2025; (c) emissions on lands that were subject to deforestation following the occurrence of natural disturbances.
5. Information requirements pursuant to Article 10(2) include the following: (a) identification of all land areas affected by natural disturbances in that particular year, including their geographical location, the period and types of natural disturbances; (b) evidence that no deforestation has occurred during the rest of the period from 2021 to 2025 on lands that were affected by natural disturbances and in respect of which emissions were excluded from accounting; (c) a description of verifiable methods and criteria to be used to identify deforestation on those lands in the subsequent years of the period from 2021 to 2025. (d) where feasible, a description of measures the Member State undertook to prevent or limit the impact of those natural disturbances; (e) where feasible, a description of measures the Member State undertook to rehabilitate the lands affected by those natural disturbances.
6. Information requirements pursuant to Article 10(2) and Articles 13 and 13b include the following: (a) identification of all land areas affected by natural disturbances in that particular year, including their geographical location, the period and types of natural disturbances; (b) where feasible, a description of measures the Member State undertook to prevent or limit the impact of those natural disturbances; (c) where feasible, a description of measures the Member State undertook to rehabilitate the lands affected by those natural disturbances.
