Massachusetts Tri-City Forestry Project
Protocol used to estimate reductions: Improved Forest Management (IFM)
Location of project site: Massachusetts, USA
Project timeline: Crediting period from February 1, 2011 – January 31, 2021
Project start date: March 17, 2017
Date and quantities of emission reductions:
191,789 mtCO2e (September 16, 2018 – September 15, 2020)
Type of project: Forest Carbon
Legal or NGO standard: American Carbon Registry V4.0
Project durability period: Permanent
Independent or 3rd party validation/verification: SCS Global Services
Annual emissions reductions/removal: 147,825 mtCO2e (January 1, 2019 – December 31, 2019) *
* This represents the most recent verified annual emissions reduction, taken from the project verification report, dated October 28, 2021.
Details of “accountability measures” if reversal or shortfall:
Enterprise Mobility carbon offset credits are paid for by rental customers who opt-in to the carbon offset program and these purchases are matched by the Enterprise Mobility Foundation. The carbon offset credits are for emission reductions that have already occurred and been validated by an independent third-party review. If purchased credits are reversed, they will be replaced by Terrapass with credits of comparable quality.
The pertinent data and calculation methods needed to independently reproduce and verify the number of emission reduction credits issued using the protocol may be found in Section 4 – Verification Findings of the Project Verification Report, which is publicly available at Massachusetts Tri-City Forestry Project.
