5. Maintenance Plan: 1 • Short-term & Long-term • We need a plan that can be implemented now! • But with well thought through ideas ready to be used if/when funds/support become available.

6. Maintenance Plan: 2 • Current Proposal for EPs • EPs to continue their work in much the same way. But... • Capture GB updates in a standardised way • Capture “development” ideas in a standardised way • ... and report these in a short annual workplan.

11. AIR POLLUTANT EMISSION FACTOR LIBRARY • Not possible to include all countries’ all sources/techniques/conditions/emissions in a GB • Use of EFs that better reflect national conditions instead of defaults is encouraged • WOULD BE A COLLECTION OF REFERENCES FOR DEVELOPING NATIONAL EFs • AND DISCOVERING SOURCES/EMISSIONS NOT YET INCLUDED • especially in the energy / industrial processes/ solvent&product use sectors • WOULD INCLUDE EFs with • SOURCE, PROCESS TECHNIQUE + ABATEMENT INFO • COUNTRY/REGION where used • REFERENCES TO DOCUMENTATION • CAN EXCLUDE or INCLUDE GB VALUES (with clear reference/status indication) • No resources needed or extra work for the EPs • SYKE offers to do the job with support from existing tasks e.g. OECD PRTR • Resource Centre & communicate with other corresponding work (IPCC, EGTEI,..

13. Recap • All GB Chapters should now be at an acceptable quality standard • Please discuss details in the EP meetings • A maintenance plan with few changes can be used now • First stages to be trialled in the EP meetings • We have longer term ideas and aims, which are dependent on more support/funding • Please suggest other ideas in EPs or Plenary
