Incompetence
Please indicate reasons for the request for review
For the calculation of baseline N2O emission factor, both N2O values and NAP values measured beyond the length of normal campaign length during the production of the quantity of nitric acid (i.e. the final tonnes produced) were eliminated. Further clarification is required on how the DOE has verified the baseline N2O emission factor considering that methodology specifies that N2O values measured beyond the length of normal campaign length are to be eliminated from the calculation of baseline emission factor.
