This report covers the technical assessment of the voluntary submission of Argentina on its proposed forest reference emission level (FREL) in accordance with decision 13/CP.19 and in the context of results-based payments. The FREL proposed by Argentina covers the activity “reducing emissions from deforestation”, which is among the activities included in decision 1/CP.16, paragraph 70. For its submission, Argentina developed a subnational FREL for four forest regions, with the aim of transitioning to a national FREL in the future. The FREL presented in the original submission corresponds to 101,141,848 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent a year for the reference period 2002–2013. As a result of the facilitative process during the technical assessment, the submission was modified to include additional data and information without altering the value of the FREL. The assessment team notes that the data and information used by Argentina in constructing its FREL are transparent, complete and in overall accordance with the guidelines contained in the annex to decision 12/CP.17. This report contains the assessed FREL and a few areas identified by the assessment team for future technical improvement in accordance with the provisions on the scope of the technical assessment contained in the annex to decision 13/CP.19.
