French term
Autorisation de Réfection d’une Route de Désenclavement.
French to English
Marketing
Forestry / Wood / Timber
This sentence is also giving me trouble. I cannot find a good English equivalent for the authorizations/acronyms. I am translating from French to English.
Cette dénomination d’ARB recouvre en fait l’ ARRD N° 752 attribuée légalement à la société en tant qu’Autorisation de Réfection d’une Route de Désenclavement.
This ARB name in fact overlaps with the ARRD No 752, also legally known as Authorization to Repair Cleared Roadways.

authorisation/permit to carry out repairs to an access road
'réfection' here includes the sense of repairs, renovation, rehabilitation of the road, not restricted to just redoing the surface.
'désenclavement'. Something which is 'enclavé' is isolated, cut off.
Reading both terms together, it seems to me clear that the road requires more than just resurfacing. That is why I have used the term 'access road' for "route de désencalvement" as without this road, there is no access.
'Permit' is often used in UK English for 'aithorisation' but I not be shocked by the term 'authorisation' here.

Permit to resurface the encroachment of a road
an enclave is also an english word, so "des" takes an action out.
Discussion
En dehors d’allégations gratuites, Greenpeace ne s’appuie pour étayer concrètement sa démonstration que sur la seule dénonciation au Cameroun de l’exploitation sous Autorisation de Récupération des Bois (ARB)
Does "ARB" then mean "Permit to Clear Forest Areas" or "Permit to Clear Wooded Areas". This is the definition I was using for ARB: Authorisation (now illegal) to salvage timber from an area within the context of a development likely to disturb or destroy a forest. I guess I am missing the relationship between ARB and ARRD...
