Audit Analysis
A U.S. Forest Offset Protocol REDD project (Green Diamond Resource Company Klamath East IFM) with a 20% quantified leakage deduction and no reported reversals, but critically lacking documented additionality assessment, safeguards, and operating under a non-standard registry. Two material contradictions between the PDD and monitoring/verification reports (buffer pool rate and ERR figures) reduce confidence in the data record.
Red Flags
- No additionality test type or VVB confirmation of additionality is stated in any available document — a fundamental requirement for REDD credits
- Buffer pool rate contradicts between the PDD (19.24%) and the monitoring report (1.3%), a 15-point discrepancy that undermines permanence assurance
- No safeguards documentation found: no FPIC, no grievance mechanism, no benefit-sharing description — all critical for a community-adjacent forest project
- Project registered under an 'other' registry with no CORSIA or CCP status stated, limiting market transparency and double-claim verification
Credit Vintages
No issuances recorded on the registry.
