Valley Floor Project

Wheatbelt, WA
Reforestation

Targeting low-quality farmland in Western Australia’s Wheatbelt Region, Valley Floor is our leading Reforestation project that seeks to address areas affected by, or at risk of further developing dryland salinity.

Details

Salubris collaborated with local farmers in Corrigin, WA to identify saline impacted areas of farmland considered unviable for traditional farming that could benefit from strategic reforestation activities. By providing a strong model for how abatement initiatives can be integrated to generate additional value within enduring farming operations, Salubris seek to encourage further engagement with farmers and local communities.

By planting native vegetation that’s proven adaptable in such areas, the project is expected to deliver valuable ACCUs, with additional environmental benefits anticipated across surrounding areas. The Valley Floor project will be managed and monitored over the projects 25-year lifetime, with the option for further similar plantings to be included over the coming years.


Activities

  • Habitat restoration through planting of mixed Eucalypt species

  • Native species protection

  • Integration with enduring farming operations

  • Community engagement

Project Highlights

  • Identification and preparation of approximately 60 hectares of saline impacted land in the Avon River Basin
  • First plantings completed in August 2024, encompassing approximately 36,000 trees

Enabling Positive Social Outcomes While Fighting Climate Change

Salubris are proud to have collaborated with Workpower, a not-for-profit dedicated to creating opportunities for individuals with disabilities, to plant the initial 36,000 Eucalyptus seedlings in the Avon River Basin.

This initial planting partnership not only benefits the environment, but also creates meaningful opportunities for all those involved.

Other Projects

  • Gindalbie Station

    Goldfields, WA

    Spanning approximately 210,000 hectares of pastoral lease in the West Australian Goldfields, Gindalbie Station is our flagship HIR project. Salubris worked with an industry partner to complete the initial stratification report and formalise the best-in-class carbon project with highly sought after ACCUs first issued in 2024.

    • Existing carbon abatement project, commencing in 2018 generating 45,000 to 55,000 ACCU’s per annum
    • Acquired in July 2023
  • Western Woodlands

    Goldfields, WA

    The Western Woodlands project spans 3,000,000 hectares and is part of the Marlinyu Ghoorlie (MG) group application to claim native title of crown land in the West Australian Goldfields. Salubris is proud to be the Marlinyu Ghoorlie group’s exclusive carbon and biodiversity partner.

    • Create sustainable environmental benefits
    • Create real economic value for the Marlinyu Ghoorlie group and local communities
    • Generate social outcomes for the Marlinyu Ghoorlie group and local communities
  • Karratha Air Shed

    Pilbara, WA

    Salubris are engaging a local First Nations group as their Blue Carbon partner for the Karratha Air Shed site on the Burrup Peninsula. This project leverages an innovative approach and is the first of its kind in the Salubris portfolio. Leading scientific research suggests carbon will be sequestered more than 10 times faster than mature tropical forests.

    • The Karratha Air Shed site is the subject of a Section 91 licence application
    • Salubris are engaging with a local First Nations group to be their Blue Carbon partner (Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) underway)
