Stage

Under Development

VM0035 v1.0 is applicable to projects implementing reduced impact logging practices to reduce GHG emissions (RIL-C practices) in one or more of three GHG emission source categories, such as timber felling, skidding, and hauling. This methodology must be used in conjunction with a region-specific performance method module. The proposed module provides applicability conditions, baselines, and additionality benchmarks for RIL-C adoption in Suriname.

SUMMARY OF DEVELOPMENT

The proposed methodology is being developed by Conservation International (opens on external site) and is currently at “Step 3: Draft Methodology Development” of the VCS Methodology Development and Review Process, 4.3 (PDF).

Stakeholders interested in collaborating during methodology development or developing projects that this methodology might enable are encouraged to contact methodologies@verra.org. Please include the Methodology Development ID# CN0126 in the subject line.
