Abstract: The United States (U.S.) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is adding Subpart W to the recently promulgated Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Program established under 40 CFR 98. Subpart W applies to the calculation and reporting of vented, fugitive, flare combustion emissions, and stationary and portable equipment combustion emissions from selected equipment at the following facilities that emit equal to or greater than 25,000 metric tons (mt) of CO2-equivalent (CO2e) per year from source categories covered by the mandatory GHG reporting rule: offshore petroleum and natural gas production entities , onshore petroleum and natural gas production facilities (including enhanced oil recovery (EOR)), onshore natural gas processing facilities, onshore natural gas transmission compression facilities, onshore natural gas storage facilities, liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage facilities, LNG import and export facilities and natural gas distribution facilities owned or operated by local distribution companies (LDCs). This ICR supplements the ICR for ICR for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases; Final Rule (EPA ICR No. 2300.03). EPA will merge these ICRs when they are renewed in the future.
