The proposed revision expands the methodology to include Human Controlled Wetlands (HCW), where tidal water flow is actively managed through human intervention to optimize carbon sequestration and ecosystem function.
Summary of Development
On April 1, 2026, the development of this revision was rejected per the VCS Methodology Development and Review Process (PDF). After careful review, Verra determined that the proposal’s climate impact was not as high as that of other ideas. Verra will therefore not proceed this approach to the full methodology development process at this time. Additionally, the project activities are already eligible under VM0033 Methodology for Tidal Wetland and Seagrass Restoration.
