DAC-2015-24 (Revoked)

ERF102126

Project Information:

DAC-2015-24 (Revoked) was a native forest regeneration project located in the Mulga Lands of Central West Queensland, approximately 50km west of Augathella and 80km north of Charleville. Registered in September 2015, the project covered a land area of 1,241 hectares within the Murweh Shire. The region is characterized by a semi-arid climate with average annual rainfall around 400-500mm, and the landscape typically features red earth and sandy loam soils supporting Acacia woodlands, predominantly utilized for grazing cattle and sheep.

The project operated under the Native Forest from Managed Regrowth (NFMR) methodology. Unlike environmental planting, which involves active seeding, this method focuses on "Assisted Regeneration" by ceasing mechanical or chemical clearing activities (such as chaining or herbicide application) to allow native vegetation to recover from in-situ seed sources, rootstock, and lignotubers. The project required the proponent to stop the suppression of regrowth on land that had previously been cleared for pastoral use.

This project was developed by Devine Agribusiness Carbon Pty Ltd, an aggregator that was acquired by GreenCollar in July 2021. Notably, the project was revoked voluntarily under Section 30 of the CFI Rule on August 6, 2021, just one month after the GreenCollar acquisition. Project notes indicate that the associated Carbon Abatement Contract (CAC102395) had been completed prior to this revocation, suggesting the project met its initial commercial obligations before being wound up or consolidated.
