Submission incomplete:
1: Scope: The verification report does not provide an assessment that all physical features of the proposed CDM project activity proposed in the registered PDD are in place and/or that the project participant has implemented and operated the proposed CDM project activity as per the registered PDD or the approved revised PDD. (VVM v.1.2 para 196)
Issue:The DOE shall clarify the number of ISO tanks tapings installed at the end of 2nd Phase as the VR (page 15) indicates that 10 tapings were installed for each phase while the PDD and MR indicate 10 tapings for the two phases.

2: Scope: The verification report does not state that the monitoring has been carried out in accordance with registered or the accepted revised monitoring plan. (VVM v.1.2 para 206 & 221(d))
Issue: The DOE raised CAR 06 because the dryer capacity utilization was not determined as per the revised MP due to the low number of ISO tanks heating reported in the monitoring period (ISO tanks heating steam consumption was assumed at 2 tonnes/Hr ); the DOE shall: i) report the measures taken to ensure that actual steam consumption through the ISO tanks is determined in future monitoring periods, ii) confirm the accuracy of the calculated dryer capacity utilization (52.69%) as it appears that the operating hours considered (8494) refer to the ISO tanks whileas the dryer operated for 4918 Hrs during the current monitoring period.

3: Scope: The verification report does not indicate that the information provided in the monitoring report has been cross-checked with other sources such as plant log books, inventories, purchase records, laboratory analyses. (VVM v.1.2 para 208 (a) and (b))
Issue: The DOE shall report : i) how the data for the moisture content of the wet grain (MCwetgrain, before drying) and dry grain (MCdrygrain, after drying) for the first month (Nov 2008) of the project activity was crosschecked as the revised monitoring plan requires that data for previous month is used for crosschecking, ii) the steps taken to verify the baseline practices of wet spent grain drying by the contracted suppliers in line with revised monitoring plan, and iii) How the dryer utilization capacity was crossechecked as the RMP requires that the consistency of this parameter is cross checked with comparison with the yearly quantity of wet spent grain dried


4: Scope: The verification report does not determine if the assumptions used in emission calculations have been justified and/or emission factors, default values and other reference values have been correctly applied. (VVM v.1.2 para 208 (d) & (e))
Issue: The PP/DOE shall:
i) confirm the accuracy of the baseline emission calculation as it appears to apply data monitored from 18/11/2008 while the phase 1 dryers were operated from 29/11/08 (MR page 7 and VR page 15),
ii) confirm the reported steam mass flow-rates, FRs, as there appears to be no correlation between this parameter (FRs); wet spent grain drying, ISO tank heating and the associated running hours i.e. on 27 Nov 2008: FRs= 40 tonnes, wet spent grain drying =0, and ISO tank heating =0 and it is not clear why FRs was considered during such periods,
iii) report how project emissions due to the onsite diesel oil- fired rotating dryers (monitoring report page 5) have been accounted for, and
iv) confirm if the transport data used for leakage calculation is correct as it is dated 2012 (please refer to the excelsheet) whileas the monitoring period refers to 2008.
