99  Record keeping and project monitoring—vegetation groundcover
 (1) The project must be monitored throughout the nominated permanence period to determine whether a carbon estimation area has less than 70% vegetation groundcover.
 (2) Monitoring must be undertaken every 3 months and records must be collected demonstrating the percentage groundcover.
 (3) Records must include:
 (a) the location of transects through a carbon estimation area; and
 (b) date-stamped and geo-referenced photographs along each transect in a carbon estimation area; and
 (c) a description of the method used to estimate the percentage ground cover in sufficient detail to enable the method to be replicated.
 (4) The transects specified in subsection (3) must be revisited each time monitoring is conducted.
