プロジェクト概要

The Anew 100-Mile Wilderness Forestry Project is located on approximately 13,000 acres of northern hardwood and spruce fir forestland in northern Maine. The project activity is improved forest management (IFM), with 100 Mile Wilderness’ forest management practices representing a significant improvement in the carbon storage and conservation value versus the higher return, more aggressive management regimes of other private lands in the region. Those regimes are characterized by shorter, even-aged rotations. No commercial harvesting will take place during the first reporting period. The Elliotsville Foundation (the landowner) plans to let the forest grow with zero harvest over the next ten years.
By committing to maintain forest CO₂ stocks above the regional baseline level, the project will provide significant climate benefits through carbon sequestration. The aim of this project is also to ensure long term continuance of all environmental benefits provided by improving forest management on this property.
The project was implemented by Elliotsville Foundation and Bluesource, LLC, a carbon credit project developer and technical modeler. Project verification was completed by Ruby Canyon Environmental, Inc, and the forest carbon inventory was conducted by Sewall Forestry & Natural Resource Consulting LLC.
