  1. Proposed Procedures for the Adjustment Process Dr Chris Dore Chair of the TFEIP

  2. Contents • Application Process • Review of Application • Funding Mechanisms

  3. 1. Application Process Based on Decision 2012/12 • Notification of application by 15th February • Supporting information included in the IIR • Evidence that the Party will exceed (or anticipate exceeding) its emission reduction commitments; • Evidence to what extent the adjustment to the emission inventory is expected to reduce the exceedance; • A demonstration that the proposed adjustment procedure is consistent with paragraph 1 of Decision 2012/3.

  4. 1. Application Process • For new emission source categories: • evidence that the new emission source category is acknowledged in scientific literature; • evidence that this source category is “new”; • evidence that this additions leads to non-compliance. • For significantly different EFs used for determining emissions from specific source categories: • a description of the original and updated emission factors; • evidence that the original EFs emission factors were used; • a comparison of original/new emission estimates;

  5. 1. Application Process • For significantly different methodologies used for determining emissions from specific source categories: • a description of the original and updated methodologies; • evidence that the original methodology was used; • a comparison of original and updated emission estimates demonstrating that the change in methodology contributes to a Party being unable to meet its reduction commitment;

  6. 1. Application Process Does the revision meet with one of the 3 adjustment criteria? Not a valid case for an adjustment no yes Is the revision caused by a change in the understanding of the science that could not have been reasonably foreseen? no yes Can the Party quantify the impact of the revision? no yes no potential consultation Does the adjustment review team consider the application to meet the required criteria? Adjustment Application made to the EMEP SB EMEP SB Implementation Committee yes Related guidance information drafted and disseminated ??? potential consultation Recommendation passed to the EMEP SB Adjustment granted EMEP SB

  7. 1. Application Process Does the revision meet with one of the 3 adjustment criteria? Not a valid case for an adjustment no yes Is the revision caused by a change in the understanding of the science that could not have been reasonably foreseen? no yes Can the Party quantify the impact of the revision? no Implementation Committee Circulation of review findings yes no Does the adjustment review team consider the application to meet the required criteria? Adjustment Application made to the Exec Secretariat EMEP SB EMEP EB yes Related guidance information drafted and disseminated ??? Recommendation passed to the EMEP SB EMEP SB Adjustment granted

  8. 2. Review of Application Management of the Process • The review process will be managed by… CEIP? • At least two experts will be comissioned to undertake the review of the information provided? • The review will deliver a report that either recommends acceptance or rejection of the application. • This report will be submitted to CEIP, EMEP SB (and implementation committee if rejection).

  9. 3. Funding Mechanisms • Funding is unlikely to be available from EMEP • One option would be to require Parties to pay to have their application reviewed. • Cost will be dependent on the amount of work required for review. • Management costs (CEIP?) • Technical costs (review experts)
