ALOA submitted a response to the Landfill Method Reforms Options. In summary we recommended:
- Acceptance of Option 1 that increase measurement requirements;
- A baseline reset commencing at 33% (or below);
- An upward sloping baseline of around 0.5%, noting that any regulatory changes will be separately provided for by baseline changes; and
- A long crediting period (e.g. 25 years) with 7-10 year review points, for current and future landfill gas projects.
For further details, including the rationale for our recommendations, please read our full SUBMISSION.
