Sliammon Carbon Interests: Background research on feasibility of acarbon offset project application.

This research project will explore the costs and benefits of putting a carbon offset project into

application for Tla’ Amin Timber Products. This project will prepare the background and inventory

documents for a carbon offset application according to the two chosen Standards, Protocol for tbe

Creation of Forest Carbon Offsets in British Columbia Version 1.0 for ImproVed Forest

Management and Pacific Carbon Standard. Simultaneously, I will develop a community

engagement program so that I can provide basic carbon offset and forest management terminology and

knowledge. I hope to provide enough information throughout the life of the project so that

stakeholders understand the project findings; and stakeholders are able to make a fair decision about

project acceptance or refusal. Up to 4 carbon offset project scenarios will be presented to Tla’Amin

stakeholders at a community presentation at the end of 6 months. I will use a number of softwares and

programs…
