Info Report Check
Submission incomplete:
1: Scope: The monitoring report does not contain information on calibration of monitoring instruments (frequency, relevant dates of calibration and/or validity) as specified by the monitoring methodology and the monitoring plan. (EB48 - Annex 68 paragraph 10 (a) (iv) & EB 54 Annex 34)
Issue 1: Page 10 of the MR includes a weight bridge which is used to measure the quantity of FFB produced (used to calculate the volume of wastewater generated as per the monitoring plan). Page 10 also states that the calibration certificates are minimum annually. There is no information on the calibration of this weight bridge.

Issue 2: The MR page 19 states that the Effluent Conversion Factor was verified from measurement at the project site using portable equipment to record the flowrate. However there is no information on the calibration of this instrument.

Issue 3: Pages 26 and 27 of the Monitoring Plan state that the COD analysis of wastewater samples will be conducted by a third party in accordance with equipment manufacturer’s specifications and will include blank and calibration standards. However there is no information on the calibration of the instruments used.

Issue 4: Calibration of the data logger NI: for data logger serial number 1343CC7 the validity date of the last calibration was on 24/02/10. There has been a calibration delay from 01/03/10 until 8 June 2010 (when it was replaced by a new unit, calibrated on 03/05/10), however the monitoring report or the spreadsheet do not clearly specify how conservative approach has been adopted in line with EB52 Annex60.

2: Scope: The verification report does not provide an assessment of the compliance with EB 52 Annex 60 'Guidelines for assessing compliance with the calibration frequency requirements' for the calibration delay. (VVM v.1.2 para 184 (a) (ii) & EB 52 Annex 60).
Issue: The verification report page 21 states that for the "data logger" the values have been corrected during 01/03 until 08/06 because of the calibration delay. However, there is no information on which values have been corrected and how they have been corrected in the verification report.
