Improved Forest Management in Temperate and Boreal Forests (LtPF), v1.1
Improved Forest Management in Temperate and Boreal Forests (LtPF), v1.1
IFM-LtPF
This methodology quantifies the GHG emission reductions generated by improving forest management and preventing logging in temperate and boreal forests. Specifically, the methodology quantifies GHG emission reductions from Logged to Protected Forest (LtPF) activities, or activities that protect logged or degraded forests from further logging or that protect unlogged forests from future logging.
The methodology was revised on 4 May 2012 to be applicable on publicly owned lands in addition to privately owned (fee simple) forest properties.
Revision Pending As of 30 September 2012, VM0012, v1.0 and v1.1 are no longer valid. Projects that have not completed validation by 30 September can no longer apply either version. VM0012 must be revised to conform with Section 4.5.3 of AFOLU Requirements v3.2., specifically to address baseline scenario requirements for accounting GHG emissions released from harvested wood products. Revisions may be approved via a streamlined process facilitated by VCS. Check this page regularly for status updates. |
This methodology was open for public comment from 2 August 2010 until 2 September 2010. Public comments are closed.
