Commonwealth Consolidated Regulations Commonwealth Consolidated Regulations(1) This regulation applies if the operation of a facility of the corporation emits greenhouse gases from a source mentioned in column 2 of the table in subregulation (2) during a reporting year.
(2) The corporation's report must include information for the facility in relation to greenhouse gas emissions from the source during the year and must identify:
(a) the criteria in the Measurement Determination used by the corporation to estimate the amount of waste in relation to the source; and
(b) the methods in the Measurement Determination used by the corporation to estimate the greenhouse gas emissions from the source; and
I for the source and method mentioned in the item of the table for the source, each of the matters set out in column 4 of that item; and
(d) if 1 or more greenhouse gases is emitted from the source during the reporting year, the amount of each greenhouse gas that is emitted.
