Mount Constellation Carbon Project (Revoked)
ERF123884
Project Information:
Mount Constellation Carbon Project (Revoked) is a soil carbon project located in the Towong local government area, approximately 20 kilometres southeast of Corryong in Victoria. Registered on August 23, 2018, the project was managed by proponent Corporate Carbon Solutions Pty Ltd alongside participant Corporate Carbon Advisory Pty Ltd, and covers an area of 159.20 hectares.
The project operates under the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) (Sequestering Carbon in Soils in Grazing Systems) Methodology Determination 2014. Soil carbon projects under this methodology involve increasing soil organic carbon stocks in grazing systems by adopting new or materially different land management activities. The standard requirements mandate that resulting carbon sequestration must be rigorously quantified via direct soil sampling and measurement over a baseline.
The Corryong and broader Upper Murray region is predominantly utilized for cattle grazing, dairy farming, and commercial forestry operations. The area features a temperate climate with high, reliable rainfall that supports year-round pasture growth. Soils in the region generally consist of fertile alluvial deposits in the river valleys, transitioning to podzolic and granitic sandy loams in the foothills.
This specific project was designed to increase carbon in the soil within the local grazing system by rejuvenating pastures. To achieve this, the project undertook activities such as targeted pasture management and pasture cropping. Interestingly, the project was officially revoked on July 11, 2025, under section 32 of the CFI Rule, a legislative clause that typically designates a voluntary revocation requested by the project proponent.
