In 2022 our Transportation division used 60%
company-owned trucks to hold pulpwood to
the middle, and 100% company-own trucks to
transport biomass chips to the power plant. The
vehicles in our fleet have an average age of one
and a half years. This helps to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions due to lower fuel consumption.
Our truck fleets serving the mill and power plant
traveled more than 39 million kilometers, with
an average haul distance of 182 kilometers.
Pulpwood delivery exceeded expectations by 5%
(approximately 282,000 cubic meters), contribu-
ting to Eldorado's record-breaking pulp produc-
tion of 1.83 million tons. In the year we also set a
new record for pulpwood haulage in a single day,
on December 30, 2022, at 26,369 cubic meters.
In addition, we launched an important behavioral
and technical training program in the Transporta-
tion division, called the Eldorado Transportation
Improvement Program (PATE). And we resumed
our "Breakfast with Management" program after
the pandemic, in which employees interact with
Transportation division management on a mon-
thly basis and receive updates on our business
strategy.
We remain focused on our goal of growing our
operations and pursuing continuous improve-
ment in our operational, health, safety, and envi-
ronmental processes. As part of these efforts, we
have reinforced and enhanced our efforts, which
we describe below.

Driver fatigue and distraction control
system: an artificial intelligence-driven camera
system installed in all trucks in our company-
-owned fleet. A virtual assistant, called Íris,
automatically alerts drivers if theyshow signs
of fatigue or distraction, and reminds them
about not using mobile devices (even when
the truck is stationary) and in about stopping
to rest if fatigued. Incidents are reported to a
management system and monitored real time,
24/7. The Control Tower has the authority to
interrupt a driver's journey if necessary.
Telemetry: a system for real-time monitoring
of driver and truck behavior from the control
tower, used on all company-owns trucks.
The maintenance team also receives sensor
information such as overheating, gearbox, oil,
engine and other data.
Total productive maintenance (TPM): an app-
-based checklist in which drivers can report any
anomalies or potential issues with the vehicle.
This supports preventive maintenance, such as
replacing defective suspension components.
The checklist is forwarded to the maintenance
team and acted upon.

Fleet renewal: another 20 trucks were added
to our fleet in the year. Next year we plan to
immediately replace a significant portion of
the fleet for compliance with new emission
standards, migrating from Euro 5 technology
to Euro 6. The new-generation trucks have
engines that provide further reductions in
pollutant emissions, including: 80% less NOX
emissions and 50% less particulate matter.
Vehicle inspections: we inspect our contract
truck fleet against the stringent safety requi-
rements stipulated in NBR 14040; this includes
performing brake and acceleration tests,
mechanical inspections, and simulating abrupt
maneuvers.
