# Overview

For each validation and verification Regen Registry assembles an Validation & Verification Committee (VVC) of 3-4 members not associated with the project and that includes a local person that can do on the ground confirmation of adherence to the project plan, verification of monitoring procedures, and validation that local stakeholders were aware of and agreed to the project processes and procedures and have been informed of any financial benefits that the project may render and were informed on fund dispersement procedures.

The VVC will work with the project proponents to answer a set of questions that will be used to validate and verify the project plan and data collected through the monitoring report.  The VVC checks for adherence to the procedures outline in the protocol, the project plan, and required elements as outlined in the [Regen Registry Program Guide](https://regen-registry.gitbook.io/regen-registry-program-guide/).

All requests for clarification from the EC to the project proponents must be documented as detailed as described in VVC[ Requests for Additional Information](/regen-validation-and-verification/regen-registry-verification-and-validation-manual/vvc-request-for-additional-information.md) chapter.
