Proposed Change TO GHG Reporting

The data collection for the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Mandatory Reporting Rule starts on January 1, 2010, and the first reports to EPA are due on March 31, 2011. As part of that first report, EPA is now proposing that reporters also include the name of their Corporate Parent and North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code. EPA has proposed to include these two data elements in the reports and is seeking public comments on the most efficient way of defining and collecting these elements. EPA is also taking comment on whether or not to have reporters list the existence of a co-generation unit at their facility. Timeline

The Comment Period on the proposed amendments to reporting requirements will close June 11, 2010 and EPA anticipated the final rule will be published in October 2010.
