While we appreciate the update on the carbon accounting and quality control processes, we are concerned by the lack of accompanying detail regarding the basis for the reported findings. As the project proponent, we are committed to engaging constructively and transparently with all stakeholders involved. Since the project was not involved in the baseline reassessment, to better understand the findings and facilitate our cooperation, I kindly request the following:
-
Baseline Reassessment Report: Please provide the full assessment report detailing the review of the carbon accounting under VM0009, including the methodology used to determine the revised baseline and the calculations leading to the reported difference of 15,220,520 VCUs issued more than the updated baseline.
-
Data Sources: Please share the data sources and any relevant documentation used to assess the actual deforestation rates in the reference area compared to the initial baseline projections.
-
Moratorium: A moratorium on the compensation process placed until we have reviewed the baseline reassessment and issue our official response exercising the right offered.
-
Contact Restriction: VERRA refrain from contacting any client of Carbon Green Investments, without prior consent.
-
Registry Access: Allow full access to the credit registry of project 902 from inception.
This will help to evaluate the findings and respond effectively to inquiries from the VVB during your quality control review. We remain committed to cooperating fully to bring this review to a close.
We expect to receive the requested documents within in the next 7 days.
