Gozdni prostor je gozd oziroma gozdno zemljišče iz prvega, drugega in tretjega odstavka prejšnjega člena in negozdno zemljišče, ekološko oziroma funkcionalno povezano z gozdom, ki skupaj z njim zagotavlja uresničevanje funkcij gozda. 1. Woodland is a forest and/or forest land referred to in paragraphs one, two and three of the preceding Article, and non-forest land that is ecologically or functionally connected with the forest; together enabling performance of forest functions. 2. Gozdnogospodarska območja so zaokrožene ozemeljske ekosistemske celote, ki se določijo za zagotavljanje trajnosti gozdov in načrtovanje, usmerjanje in spremljanje razvoja gozdov in gozdnega prostora ne glede na lastništvo. Gozdnogospodarska območja se delijo na gozdnogospodarske enote. 2. Forest management regions are integral territorial ecosystemic units that shall be defined to ensure sustainability of forests as well as for planning, steering and monitoring of the development of forests and woodlands regardless of their ownership. Forest management regions shall be divided into forest management units. 3. Gozdni ekosistem so življenjske združbe rastlin in živali ter njihovi življenjski prostori z vsemi soodvisnostmi (vplivi okolja na te življenjske združbe in obratno). 3. Forest ecosystems are biotic communities of plants and animals and their habitats, together with everything interdependent with them (influence of the environment on these biotic communities and vice versa). 4. Biotsko ravnovesje je stanje gozdnega ekosistema, ki zagotavlja obstoj, pestrost in uravnoteženo razmerje ter razvoj rastlinskih in živalskih vrst. 4. Biological balance is the condition of a forest ecosystem that enables the existence, diversity and balanced relationship as well as development of plant and animal species. 5. Funkcije gozdov so ekološke: varovanje gozdnih zemljišč in sestojev, hidrološka, funkcija ohranjanja biotske raznovrstnosti ter klimatska funkcija; socialne: zaščitna funkcija – varovanje objektov, rekreacijska, turistična, poučna, raziskovalna, higiensko – zdravstvena funkcija, funkcija varovanja naravnih vrednot, funkcija varovanja kulturne dediščine, obrambna ter estetska funkcija; proizvodne: lesnoproizvodna funkcija, pridobivanje drugih gozdnih dobrin ter lovnogospodarska funkcija. 5.

Kot izhodišče za ugotovitev lastnega kapitala, ki je bil ustvarjen z gospodarjenjem z družbenimi in zasebnimi gozdovi, se upošteva začetni kapital posameznega sektorja lastništva z dnem, ko je bilo v gozdnogospodarski organizaciji uvedeno skupno gospodarjenje z družbenimi in zasebnimi gozdovi. Začetni kapital zasebnega sektorja je razlika med poslovnim skladom v končni bilanci stanja pred skupnim gospodarjenjem oziroma organiziranjem temeljnih organizacij in začetno bilanco stanja prvega leta skupnega gospodarjenja oziroma organiziranja temeljih organizacij. Začetni sklad se povečuje z dejansko akumulacijsko stopnjo, doseženo z gospodarjenjem z gozdovi posameznega sektorja lastništva do dneva razdružitve premoženja. Izjemoma se lahko v primeru, ko ni podatkov za obdobje, ko je bilo uvedeno skupno gospodarjenje, za own capital (liabilities to the owners of sources of funds) according to the criterion of who created it. As a premise in establishing own capital which has been created through the management of socially owned and private forests, the initial capital of individual sectors of ownership on the day that joint management of socially owned and private forests was initiated in forest management organisations shall be taken into consideration. The initial capital of the private sector is the difference between the business funds in the final balance sheet prior to joint management or the organisation of basic organisations and the opening balance sheet of the first year of joint management or the organisation of basic organisations. The initial funds shall be increased by the actual level of accumulation achieved through the management of individual sectors of ownership up to the day of the division of assets. Exceptionally, začetni kapital posameznega sektorja upošteva knjižno stanje lastnega kapitala ob nastanku temeljnih organizacij združenega dela in temeljnih organizacij kooperantov, povečanega za ustrezni delež kapitala skupnih dejavnosti. Tako ugotovljeni začetni sklad se povečuje z dejansko akumulacijsko stopnjo do dneva razdružitve premoženja; where there is no data for the period when joint management was initiated, the initial capital of individual sectors may be taken to be the balance of the book value of the organisation's own capital on the establishment of basic organisations of associated labour and basic organisations of cooperants, increased by an appropriate share from joint activities. Initial funds ascertained in this way shall be increased by the actual level of accumulation up to the day of division of the assets; c) Delavci c) Employees: se razdružijo glede na prevzeto premoženje, svojo usposobljenost in dejansko opravljanje del za temeljne organizacije kooperantov, lovskogospodarske temeljne organizacije združenega dela, dejavnosti, ki se prenašajo na Zavod, in dejavnosti v izvajalskem gozdarskem podjetju oziroma drugi organizaciji, ki je gospodarila z gozdovi.
