Barrambie Station Regeneration Project

Barrambie Station Regeneration Project is a Human-Induced Regeneration project located at Barrambie Station, approximately 60km north of Sandstone in the Mid West region of Western Australia. Registered in December 2020, the project spans an area of 87,744.57 hectares, following an August 2021 variation that removed some portions of the initial project area.

Human-Induced Regeneration (HIR) projects involve the establishment of permanent, even-aged native forests by encouraging natural regrowth from in-situ seed sources, including rootstock and lignotubers. A standard requirement for this methodology is that the land must have been previously cleared of native vegetation, with regrowth continually suppressed for at least 10 years prior to the project's commencement. To achieve regeneration, proponents must manage these suppressors; for this specific project, the primary activity is the careful management of the timing and extent of livestock grazing to allow the native forest to recover.

The Sandstone and Murchison region is characterized by an arid to semi-arid climate with low annual rainfall. The local environment features sandstone-derived pastoral soils, red sandy earth, undulating plains, and low hills that typically support drought-resistant vegetation like mulga woodlands and gidgee trees. Regional land use is predominantly divided between extensive pastoral grazing and mining operations.

Historically established as a sheep grazing property, Barrambie Station has since transitioned to cattle farming, running herds such as Droughtmaster cattle. Beyond its pastoral history, the property is situated in the historic Murchison Goldfields, an area famous for wild gold rushes in the early 20th century. Today, the carbon project is managed by proponent Allison Gaye Taylor, who took over from Mark Clancy Taylor in June 2025, alongside carbon service provider Select Carbon Pty Ltd.
