Analysis

Tradewater ODS 16 is an ozone-depleting-substance destruction project in Ohio verified by GHD Services under the ACR standard. The verification report (July 2019) confirms 148,592 units of ODS destroyed with no material findings or corrective actions, but the extracted record is extremely sparse: additionality, baseline method, leakage treatment, and safeguards are all absent from the available documents. The project's integrity rests largely on the VVB's verification of the destruction event itself, with limited independent evidence of additionality or baseline validity.
