8F  Requirements for restarting biomethane displacement-only projects

       A restarting biomethane displacement-only project must:
            (a) occur at a biomethane facility that was part of an eligible offsets project (the forerunner project):
               (i) that involved the carrying out of biomethane production; and
               (ii) for which the applicable methodology determination was the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative—Animal Effluent Management) Methodology Determination 2019 or an earlier version of any of that determination applicable in accordance with section 125, 126, 127 or 130 of the Act; and
               (iii) the crediting period for which has expired; and
            (b) involve biomethane production; and
            (c) have a crediting period greater than zero under section 17D.

             Note: A restarting biomethane displacement-only project will only earn credits for the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production (see paragraph 18A(e)). Such a project may also involve biogas generation for biomethane, emissions avoidance or emissions destruction, but no credits will be issued in relation to those project activities.
