| Framework | Provision | Relation | Confidence | Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ESRS E4 | E4-2 | Narrow match | Medium (60%) | Sustainable soil management / soil preservation corresponds to sustainable land practices. |
| Taxonomie UE | 2.2-SC | Close match | High | The initial soil state, sustainable management and reuse of soil and pollution remediation restore the ecological quality of the site's soils. |
| GBF | Target 2 | Narrow match | Medium | The creation of structured biodiversity areas, the restoration of living soils and the re-establishment of ecological continuities contribute to the rehabilitation and improvement of ecological integrity and connectivity at the site scale. |
| GBF | Target 11 | Narrow match | Medium | Water-resource management, soil health, the installation of beehives and the provision of resources for pollinators strengthen ecosystem services (water, soils, pollination) explicitly cited by the target. |
| NRL | Art. 4(11-12) | Narrow match | Medium | The preservation of soils and the initial plant heritage and sustainable soil management avoid significant deterioration of habitats and their support at site scale, consistent with the non-deterioration obligation. |
| SNB 2030 | SNB-M11 | Close match | Medium | Sustainable soil management restores the life and functionality of soils. |
| Loi biodiv 2016 | BIO-12 | Broad match | Medium | Sustainable soil management helps limit artificialisation; the legal objective is more general than mere operational soil management. |
| HQE | HQE-BD-C1.2d | Related match | Low | The consideration of the plot's soil overlaps with sustainable soil management. |
| ÉcoQuartier | Engagement 20 | Broad match | High | The ÉcoQuartier's soil preservation/restoration encompasses this Effinature requirement for preserving living soil (state, quality, land use, sealing, CBS/open ground). |
| Crédits biodiv | BC-P09 | Related match | Medium (60%) | The sustainable management of soils contributes to the permanence of ecological functions. |
| IFC PS6 | PS6-§26 | Related match | Indicative (50%) | The sustainable management of living natural resources through certification partially overlaps with Effinature's requirements for responsible/certified wood provenance and sustainable soil and plant management. |
| ESS6 | ESS6-§31-32 | Related match | Indicative (50%) | The sustainable management of living natural resources through recognised good practices and standards partially overlaps with Effinature's requirements for sustainable soil and plant management and responsible wood provenance. |
| EP4 | EP-DII-5 | Related match | Indicative (45%) | Effinature's sustainable management of soils and plant heritage pursues the objective of sustainable management of renewable natural resources in Document II §5, without a generalised independent-certification requirement. |

| DGNB | ENV-DIST-LANDUSE | Related match | Low | District soil management ~ sustainable soil management. |
| Estidama | NS-R3 | Related match | Medium | Sustainable soil management. |
