Victo and Murrumbah Station Human-Induced Regeneration Project (Revoked)

Victo and Murrumbah Station Human-Induced Regeneration Project (Revoked) was a Human-Induced Regeneration (HIR) project located in the Paroo Shire of South West Queensland, approximately 50km south of Wyandra and 60km north-east of Cunnamulla. Registered on March 21, 2017, the project covered a substantial area of 35,102 hectares. The region is situated within the Mulga Lands bioregion, an area characterized by semi-arid conditions with average annual rainfall between 300mm and 400mm. The landscape is dominated by grazing properties on red earth and sandy loam soils, which support the native Mulga (Acacia aneura) vegetation typical of this environment.

The project operated under the Human-Induced Regeneration of a Permanent Even-Aged Native Forest-1.1 methodology. This method requires landholders to cease suppression activities, such as mechanical clearing or intensive grazing, to allow native forest to regenerate naturally. To generate credits, the land must show potential to reach "forest cover" status, defined as trees reaching 2 meters in height with at least 20% canopy cover. The project proponent, Michael William Lennon, worked with CO2 Australia Pty Ltd to manage these activities, primarily focusing on managing grazing pressure to facilitate regrowth.

Notably, this project has been revoked. It was voluntarily revoked on January 22, 2020, under section 30 of the CFI Rule, and its associated carbon abatement contract (CAC205237) was terminated or lapsed in May 2019 without delivering the committed 166,722 tonnes of abatement. Revocation under section 30 typically occurs when a proponent chooses to withdraw the project, often due to property sales, changes in land management strategy, or an assessment that the project is no longer viable. As a revoked project, it is no longer eligible to generate Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs).
