Mandatory Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting Rule
- Date: March 01, 2011
- Source: Admin
Report to the EPA
Emitters/Source |
· Total facility emissions aggregated for all source categories · Metric tons CO2e and mt of each GHG · Total biogenic CO2 emissions · Additional information such as process- or unit-level emissions, activity data like fuel use or raw material throughputs and quality assurance/quality control data specified |
GHG and Fuel Suppliers |
· Total emissions aggregated for all supply categories · mtCO2e and mt of each GHG |
Certain Specific Facilities |
· Onsite electricity generation in kWh · Total lb of synthetic fertilizer produced and total N contained in the fertilizer · Unit- or process-level emissions, activity data, or QA/QC data specified |
Emission Reports |
· Submitted electronically, format specified by EPA after finalization · Each report signed by a designated representative of the owner or operator |
Reportable Greenhouse Gases
Six Kyoto GHGs
- Carbon dioxide (CO2)
- Methane (CH4)
- Nitrous oxide (N2O)
- Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC)
- Perfluorocarbons (PFC)
- Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6)
PLUS
- Nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)
- Hydro fluorinated ethers (HFE)
EPA has identified three groups of GHG sources subject to the rule: “downstream,” “upstream,” and mobile sources.
Upstream Sources fuel suppliers – the makers and importers or exporters of petroleum products, natural gas, and coal-based liquid fuels – as well as suppliers of industrial GHGs. |
Suppliers of: · Coal-based Liquid Fuels · Petroleum Products · Natural Gas and Natural Gas Liquids · Industrial GHGs · Carbon Dioxide (CO2) |
|
Downstream Sources commercial and industrial plants and other types of facilities that have the potential to directly emit significant amounts of GHGs |
· General Stationary Fuel Combustion Sources · Electricity Generation · Adipic Acid Production · Aluminum Production · Ammonia Manufacturing · Cement Production · Ferroalloy Production · Glass Production · HCFC-22 Production and HFC-23 Destruction · Hydrogen Production · Iron and Steel Production · Lead Production |
· Lime Manufacturing · Miscellaneous Uses of Carbonates · Nitric Acid Production · Petrochemical Production · Petroleum Refineries · Phosphoric Acid Production · Pulp and Paper Manufacturing · Silicon Carbide Production · Soda Ash Manufacturing · Titanium Dioxide Production · Zinc Production · Municipal Solid Waste Landfills · Manure Management |
Mobile Sources manufacturers and importers of vehicles and engines that are outside the “light duty” category |
· Vehicles and engines outside of the light-duty sector |
Reporting Methodology
- Direct measurement of emissions for Facilities already reporting and collecting emissions data
- Facility-specific calculations for other source categories
- Existing certification and test protocols for vehicle/engine manufacturers
- Direct reporting of gas produced, imported, and exported for industrial gas and fossil fuel suppliers
