📌 종합 발견 사항

에코마칼라 비룽가 재조림 프로젝트(GS5618)는 콩고민주공화국 북키부주 비룽가 국립공원 주변에서 WWF DRC와 CO2logic이 6개 토착·외래 수종으로 1,878 ha를 조림한 Gold Standard A/R 사업이다. 1차 모니터링 기간(2009.02.16–2016.12.31)에 대해 DOE EPIC Sustainability Services가 검증한 결과 총 179,414 tCO2e(생체량 178,416 + 토양탄소 998)가 인증되었으며, 이는 사전 추정치 211,205 tCO2e보다 낮은 수준으로 에볼라 발생 및 무력 충돌로 베니·루추루 지역이 제외된 데 기인한다. 누출배출은 농·목축 활동 이전이 없음이 설문으로 확인되어 0으로 산정되었고, GS 버퍼 20%와 추가 안전장치 5% 및 유칼립투스 살리그나 20% 보수적 할인이 적용되었다. 검증 과정에서 CL 2건, CAR 3건은 모두 종결되었으나 화재관리, 표본구획 대표성, 베니·루추루·니라공고 차기 편입 등 13건의 FAR가 차기 검증으로 이월되었다.

VRVR.pdfVerification and Certification Report v4.02020-05-20
• DOE EPIC Sustainability Services confirmed 179,414 tCO2e (178,416 biomass + 998 soil carbon)
• Predicted 211,205 tCO2e; shortfall due to exclusion of Beni and Rutshuru territories
• 2 CLs, 3 CARs, 13 FARs raised; all CLs/CARs closed, 13 FARs forwarded to next verification
• Leakage assessed as zero per applied methodology and grower surveys
• GS buffer 20% plus additional 5% safeguard applied; precision error 12.03% (<20% threshold)

⚠️ 위험 요소 + 차감 사항

구분중요도설명차감량
Security/politicalHIGHArmed conflict and insurgency in eastern DRC forced exclusion of Rutshuru and Beni territories from MP1 inventory and site visits
Public healthHIGHEbola outbreak in Beni territory prevented onsite verification and inventory in that area
Non-permanence (fire)MEDIUMPlantations (especially Lubero) exposed to forest fire risk; periodic awareness campaigns required (FAR 6)
Leakage from displacement of agriculture/livestockLOWSurveys with growers showed no displacement; leakage set to zero but FAR 10 carries forward reassessment
Premature harvestingMEDIUMTwo Acacia plantations cut after inventory; biomass corrected to zero (CAR 1)
Biodiversity/waterLOWEucalyptus proximity to water bodies and groundwater impact reviewed; mitigated by 20m buffer and high local rainfall (~1,400 mm)
Permanence of sample plotsMEDIUMFAR 13 requires next VVB to confirm representativeness of permanent sample plots in security-affected MUs
차감Gold Standard Compliance Buffer: Standard GS buffer for non-permanence risk on AR projects39,604 tCO2eq (20.0%)
차감Additional safeguard (SustCERT/independent observer): Conservative safeguard prescribed by Gold Standard on top of standard buffer9,901 tCO2eq (5.0%)
차감Eucalyptus saligna productivity discount (Lubero): 20% conservative discount applied to Stratum 1 carbon fixation based on Lubero productivity outlier analysis0 tCO2eq (20.0%)
차감Baseline biomass deduction: Baseline tree (1.3 tCO2/ha) and non-tree (23.6 tCO2/ha) biomass = 24.9 tCO2/ha deducted in first year of crediting46,733 tCO2eq
차감Acacia plot biomass correction (CAR 1): Two Acacia plantations harvested post-inventory; biomass set to zero, reducing Stratum 3 credits from 12,427 to 9,731 tCO22,696 tCO2eq
차감Exclusion of Beni/Rutshuru/Nyiragongo and Cedrela/Senna strata: Excluded from MP1 due to Ebola, security, and reviewer instruction; deferred to next performance certification31,791 tCO2eq
