DAC-2015-19 (Revoked)

DAC-2015-19 (Revoked) is a Native Forest from Managed Regrowth project located approximately 20km south of Eulo and 80km west of Cunnamulla in the Paroo Shire of Queensland. It was registered in September 2015 and covers an area of 3,816.46 ha.

Native Forest from Managed Regrowth projects involve the cessation of mechanical or chemical destruction, or suppression, of regrowth. This allows permanent native forests to be established through assisted regeneration from in-situ seed sources, including rootstock and lignotubers, on land that had previously undergone at least one comprehensive clearing for pastoral use.

The Paroo Shire area is known for extensive pastoral land uses, primarily beef cattle grazing and wool production. The region is considered semi-arid, experiencing a low average annual rainfall of 300-400mm. The soils across this alluvial floodplain are predominantly clay (Vertosols), alongside pockets of sandy and stony soils (Tenosols).

Interestingly, this project was developed by Devine Agribusiness Carbon Pty Ltd with a nominated permanence period of 25 years. However, the project was officially revoked on August 6, 2021, under section 30 of the CFI Rule, ending its active status in the ACCU scheme.
