IRS990/Desc01) CCI staff worked closely with Marin Carbon Project's Implementation Task Force to develop carbon farms plans for five new ranches and farms in the County. 2) CCI worked with Alameda RCD to develop a successful $300,000 proposal to the USEPA that will enable them to develop a regional carbon farm program and develop carbon farm plans for 6-8 ranches in eastern Alameda County. 3) CCI provided technical support and co-developed carbon farming templates and guidance for Mendocino (Forest Management template), Napa (vineyard template), and Sonoma (orchard template) RCDs. The templates developed will also be shared with RCDs in over 20 counties throughout California, to enable them to initiate carbon farming in their regions. 4) In the South Bay, CCI is working directly with the San Mateo RCD to develop a carbon farm demonstration ranch at TomKat Ranch, owned by Tom Steyer. This effort will allow San Mateo RCD to train its staff and create the framework for a countywide carbon farming program. 5) CCI partnered with Fibershed to develop a comprehensive carbon farm plan for the Bare Ranch in Modoc County (the largest wool producer in CA). This carbon farm plan has created the documentation and quantification to validate the wool produced at Bare Ranch as climate-beneficial (the wool is a net sink for carbon and greenhouse gases). 6) CCI partnered with Marin and Sonoma counties to develop the first of its kind agricultural element integrated into their new climate action plans. In partnership with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD), CCI helped integrate an agriculture/working lands element into BAAQMD's regional climate plan. 7) At the federal level, CCI worked with US Department of Agriculture (USDA) to further expand its carbon farming calculator, COMET-Planner, to include 34 climate-beneficial practices commonly used by ranchers and farmers in California. In addition, CCI worked with USDA to develop and release guidance for farmers and farm advisors on how to plan, implement, and evaluate carbon farming. 8) Lastly, and most significantly, CCI and its partners were successful in securing $7.5M (FY 2017) for California's Healthy Soils Program and $50M for carbon farming in the current version of the upcoming Water/Park Bond. The Healthy Soils Program will focus on supporting carbon farm planning and practice implementation, with increasing soil carbon levels as the program's primary metric.
