In 2011, we made Methodology Design Document (MDD) for the Joint

Crediting Mechanism (JCM) including measuring the peat, the

belowground water level, forest biomass and so on.

Our Past Feasibility Study (F/S) in 2011

In addition to the development of the MRV methodologies for JCM,

we implemented following activities.


7/13


Objectives of Feasibility Study in FY2012

O To analyze the full carbon stock amount in the project site

O To estimate the net GHG emission reduction amountO To develop the community mapping in the project site and the sustainable agroforestry

systems and land husbandry practices.

3. Reference Scenario

Analysis of land cover and land cover changes

Calculation of emission factors in each forest stratification

Calculation of net emission reductions

According to MDD:

Option a) Legally approved conversion rate

Option b) Historical conversion analysis in a reference region

Option c) Conservative Estimate of a conversion rate based on literature review

Methodology:

Baseline deforestation rate in Central Kalimantan from

1985 - 2010:

Average 0.397% per year

Net Emission Reductions (NERs) =

(Emissions from forest fires + Emissions from logging) natural forest regeneration
