Water quality protection in bioenergy production: the US system of forestry Best Management PracticesUnited States federal law requires that states operate programs to address non-point source pollution. Forestry non-point source programs vary among states in their approach. Some states have laws that prescribe mandatory practices to control pollution, whereas other states use voluntary approaches of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and education and outreach programs. States routinely monitor the extent of BMP implementation so as to improve educational programs and thus improve implementation. Many states also have conducted studies to assess whether BMPs are effective in protecting water quality. A growing body of literature strongly suggests that properly implemented BMPs do protect water quality.James P. Shepard2006Etats-UnisBiomass and Bioenergy, Vol. 30, Issue 4, pp. 378-384Article

La récolte raisonnée des rémanents en forêtDans la perspective d'une diversification des sources d'énergie, les résidus d'exploitation (branches et feuillages) couramment appelés rémanents constituent une ressource intéressante jusqu'alors peu valorisée. Toutefois, la récolte répétée de ces produits n'est pas neutre et peut représenter une exportation d'éléments minéraux non négligeable. Elle peut entraîner, sur certains types de sols, une baisse de la fertilité à long terme, à prohiber dans le cadre d'une sylviculture durable sans apport externe. À partir de quels taux de récolte et sur quels types de sols ?

A Review of Biomass Harvesting Best Management Practices Guidelines
North East State Foresters Association
The North East State Foresters Association (NEFA) conducted a thorough review of all the biomass harvesting guidelines that have been developed at the state level in the U.S., in other countries, and also within the existing forest certification systems.
Many states have some form of harvesting guidelines for protection of water quality (Best Management Practices or BMPs), but these do not usually cover biomass harvesting
explicitly. Therefore, standard BMPs are not covered in this review.
It is evident that peer reviewed scientific research forms the basis of the biomass harvesting guidelines that have been published to date, but only to a limit. The science has
revealed areas where biomass harvesting must be conducted judiciously due to the fragile nature of the resource, but the research rarely provides a sure-bet metric to guide field harvesting activities.

Increased biomass harvesting for bioenergy. Effects on biodiversity, landscape amenities and cultural heritage values Bioenergy is one important form of renewable energy where Finland, Norway and Sweden have considerable potential. Greatly increased use of biomass for energy will, however, have considerable effects on environmental values like biodiversity, landscape appearance, outdoor recreation, and the cultural heritage. This review concludes that positive or marginally negative effects of biomass harvesting are likely for harvesting of logging residues, clearance of trees under power lines, along roads, and from marginal agricultural land, as well as production of energy crops on arable land. Negative effects are likely from harvesting of stumps, more intensive forest cultivation on logged areas, and harvesting of biomass from currently non-commercial forests. The environmental effects of production of biomass from reed canary grass or short rotation forestry will depend on where and how such production takes place.

Stump Harvesting for Bioenergy – A Review of the Environmental ImpactsStump harvesting signifi es an intensification of forest management compared with conventional stem-only or above- ground biomass-only harvesting. There are many practical and perceived benefi ts of stump harvesting. These include (1) the production of woodfuel (2) fossil fuel substitution (3) additional revenue for forest owners (4) improved site preparation and (5) potential reduction of Heterobasidion . However, evidence suggests that, in the absence of appropriate precautionary measures, stump harvesting will lead to many undesirable environmental impacts.J.D. Walmsley and D.L.

Effects on biodiversity of forest fuel extraction, governed by processes working on a large scaleThe question whether forest fuel extraction will affect biodiversity is ultimately a question of whether there will be species extinctions due to this practice. Quantitative predictions, i.e. about how much habitat loss various species can tolerate, therefore require knowledge about processes that work over hundreds of square kilometres and over several years. Therefore, they are almost impossible to make. Instead, qualitative recommendations about which types of habitats or wood types that have the most threatened fauna and flora can be made based on information about landscape history and microhabitat associations of red-listed species. For Sweden a general conclusion for forest fuel extraction based mainly on saproxylic beetles is that coniferous wood can be harvested as forest fuel to a rather large extent, whereas deciduous tree species, and especially southern deciduous species and aspen, should be retained to a larger degree.

Concerns about the sustainability of these practices have led to the development of biomass harvesting guidelines (BHGs) by state, national, and international agencies and nongovernmental organizations. Site productivity BHG provisions include retaining specific proportions of harvested residues and restricting biomass harvesting on some sites.Eric D. Vance, W. Michael Aust, Brian D.

Quantifying consequences of removing harvesting residues on forest soils and tree growth – A meta-analysisThe main objective of the present study was to compile published data worldwide and to quantify the overall effects of removing harvesting residues on nutrient outputs, chemical and biological soil fertility and tree growth, through a meta-analysis. Our study showed that, compared with conventional stem-only harvest, removing the stem plus the harvesting residues generally increases nutrient outputs thereby leading to reduced amounts of total and available nutrients in soils and soil acidification, particularly when foliage is harvested along with the branches.David Achat, Christine Deleuze, Guy Landmann, Noémie Pousse, Jacques Ranger, Laurent Augusto 2015FranceForest Ecology and ManagementArticle scientifique
Potential ecological consequences of biomass harvesting in CaliforniaThe expansion of forest biomass markets may affect California’s forests both positively and negatively. Existing research does not permit an exact assessment of biomass harvesting impact in each forest type, but policy decisions can still benefit from a synthesis of the available science. Biomass markets may permit the harvest and removal of trees that would previously have been left in the woods to die, so they may reduce the prevalence of key habitat elements such as snags and downed logs. Water quality, soils, and site productivity can also be affected by reductions in dead wood brought about by increased biomass harvesting.Alexander M.

Principles of nutrient managementfor sustainable forest bioenergyproductionNutrient management is an important part of ensuring sustainable forest produc-tion. Essential concepts for managing site nutrients are built on the knowledge oftypes of soil, tree nutrient demands, and how these are impacted by silviculture,harvesting, and other management practices. Managers must clearly define forestmanagement objectives, and how bioenergy production or carbon dioxide-offsetobjectives require special consideration. Managers must examine how silviculture, harvesting, and other management practices might affect nutrient poolsand availability. Soil fertility management practices are designed in response tothese evaluation steps. Fertility management alternatives may include alteringmanagement practices that affect the distribution of harvested tree branches, fo-liage, and tops, as well as addition of fertilizers, nitrogen-fixing plants, or woodash. Planting on sites with pre-existing nutrient deficiencies may require addingnutrients to obtain merchantable tree growth over the short and long term. Nu-trient management principles may also be required to minimize off-site impactsof management practices, for example, on water quality or climate change. Man-agers must determine what nutrients are needed on forested sites, amendmentrates, and timing, and take into account the relationships among nutrients, soil,climate, and plant processes throughout the rotation. Soil and foliar analysis andthe use of soil and plant bioassay tools can assist in these evaluations. Sustainablemanagement practices require that nutrient control strategies evaluate economicand energy balances, and if necessary, modify management practices, includingnutrient amendments, to ensure that they are sustainable. Examples of forestnutrient management practices are described.CD. Mead, C. Smith 2012EuropeArticle

Sustainable utilisation of forest biomass for energy—Possibilities and problems: Policy, legislation, certification, and recommendations and guidelines in the Nordic, Baltic, and other European countriesThe substitution of biomass for fossil fuels in energy consumption is a measure to mitigate global warming, as well as having other advantages. Political action plans for increased use exist at both European and national levels. This paper briefly reviews the contents of recommendations, guidelines, and other synthesis publications on sustainable use of forest biomass for energy. Topics are listed and an overview of advantages, disadvantages, and trade-offs between them is given, from the viewpoint of society in general and the forestry and energy sectors in particular. For the Nordic and Baltic countries, the paper also identifies the extent to which wood for energy is included in forest legislation and forest certification standards under the “Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification” (PEFC) and the “Forest Stewardship Council” (FSC) schemes.I.

Criteria and indicators for sustainable forest fuel production and harvesting: A review of current standards for sustainable forest managementInternational processes and certification systems have been developed to ensure sustainable forest management (SFM) in general, but it is important to consider if they adequately address specific impacts of intensified production and harvesting methods related to forest fuels. To explore how existing SFM frameworks address sustainable forest fuel production, criteria and indicators (C&I) from 10 different international processes and organizations and 157 international, national and sub-national forest management certification standards under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) were reviewed. International processes include indicators that require identification or reporting of availability, harvested amounts, value, or share in energy consumption of forest fuels. Forest certification standards address several specific woodfuel issues, but not always in a consistent manner.Inge Stupak, Brenna Lattimore, Brian D. Titus, C.

Provincial Government Standards, Criteria, and Indicators for Sustainable Harvest of Forest Biomass in British Columbia: Soil and BiodiversityAn increasing amount of biomass is being harvested from British Columbia’s forests as a feedstock for bioenergy, and these removals have the potential to incrementally increase machine traffic and organic matter removals from forest sites, compared to harvesting operations focused solely on roundwood for timber or pulp. To the extent that existing standards support SFM, they may be sufficient for ensuring that biomass harvesting is also sustainable. Regardless of the new challenges created by intensive harvesting practices, the principles of soil and biodiversity conservation remain the same. The current framework for BC’s SFM policy is reviewed to examine whether it addresses the major sustainability issues that are likely to arise in the province if intensive biomass harvesting becomes more prevalent. We conclude that intensification of biomass removals will require us to keep focused on stand and landscape sensitivity to coarse woody debris removals and biodiversity requirements, nutrient removals, and cumulative soil disturbanceShannon M.
