Submission incomplete:
The VR, page 11, states that the sample size is calculated based on 90/10 confidence/precision level. However, there is no information in the VR to demonstrate how the required 90/10 confidence/precision level is achieved through all the surveys carried out to find out the the proportional parameter “Confirmation that non-renewable biomass has been substituted”. As the survey was to determine if non-renewal biomass has been substituted, there is not quantitative data to demonstrate confidence/precision levels”.

The PP/DOE is requested to include the achieved precision of the surveys in the monitoring and verification reports. Please refer to section 5 of appendix 4 to the Guideline: Sampling and surveys for CDM project activities and PoAs (v4) for the method to calculate the achieved precision or reliability. While addressing this issue, the PP/DOE are requested to provide the traceable spreadsheets (i.e. to show the formula inserted in the spreadsheets) to demonstrate how the actual confidence/precision level is achieved for all surveys reported.)
