Scope: The verification report does not list each parameter required by the monitoring plan and does not provide an statement on how the DOE verified the information flow (from data generation, aggregation, to recording, calculation and reporting) for these parameters including the values in the monitoring reports (VVS v2, para 236, 284 (e)).
Issue: The DOE is requested to explain how it verified the following:
(a) Parameter pn,j,y, (weight fraction of the waste type j). In particular how the figures shown in spreadsheet “Summary of waste type percentage, 2014 for Annex 2” were obtained in relation to the three selected sampling days per quarter and four times per year. Furthermore, how the DOE verified that the result of the sampling has complied with the confidence/precision required by the monitoring plan (i.e. 20% at a 95% confidence level), in accordance with the paragraph 22 of the “Standard for Sampling and Surveys for CDM Project Activities and Programme Activities” (version 4.1);
(b) The paragraph 13 of the AMS-III.F version 5 requires that the operation of the composting facilities be documented in a quality control program, monitoring the conditions and procedures that ensure the aerobic condition of the waste during the composting process. As per VR page 18, the DOE during site visit verified the proper compost application to ensure aerobic conditions for further decay. However it is not clear how the DOE verified that the aerobic condition was ensured during the composting process;
