Analysis

A small-scale A/R CDM project in Uttar Pradesh with VVB-verified additionality and FPIC, but hampered by 22 material findings during validation, a project-specific baseline with no stated reassessment date, a 0% leakage deduction justified only as 'deemed negligible,' and no buffer pool or reversal-event data in the extracted record. The monitoring-period ERR of 10,564 tCO₂e represents roughly 133% of the pro-rata lifetime expectation, which is within normal early-growth range for afforestation.
