30 Vegetation fuel type map for transferring project area
- This section applies if:
(a) a project area for a savanna sequestration project is a transferring project area; and
(b) a vegetation map or a vegetation fuel type map has been created and validated for the transferring project area in accordance with the former determination for that area.
- The map is taken to be a vegetation fuel type map for the project area that has been created and validated in accordance with this instrument, and the pixels of the map are taken to be mapping units.
- If the vegetation map referred to in paragraph (1)(b) required revision under that former determination at the time the area became a transferring project area, the project proponent for the project that includes the transferring project area must:
(a) at the time the area becomes a transferring project area—notify the Regulator in writing that the vegetation map or vegetation fuel type map for the transferring project area requires revision; and
(b) revise the map as required under the former determination.
- For the purposes of this instrument, a reference to a vegetation class on a map that was created under a savanna emissions avoidance determination is taken to be a reference to the corresponding vegetation fuel type, in accordance with the Technical Guidance Document for the 2026 Savanna Fire Management Methods.
