Additional information | |
1) The LFG capture cost USD/ha for this project activity (50,484) is more than 100 to 200 % larger than the two other projects (13,265 and 23,150) validated by the same DOE in the same host country which were submitted together for registration;furthermore the suitablity of this investement cost is compared with US-EPA cost (59,305) without any specificity (reasons) related to this project activity. The DOE is further requested to substantiate why (a) only for this project it is higher compared to the other's ; (b) how it confirmed that comparison with US-EPA estimates is appropriate. Please refer to VVM version 1.2 paragraphs 111(a). 2) The compliance of the proposed project activity with the applicability condition of the methodology is demonstrated by stating that "collection system is not designed to recycle organic waste". Further, baseline alternatives LFG3, LFG4 and LFG5 are eliminated since the interview with the landfill staff of the project activity confirmed that the project does not cover recycling, treatment or incineration of waste. However the source referenced only pertains to the project activity and project land fill site after disposal. It is not clear how : i) the DOE has validated the compliance with the applied methodology ACM 0001,Version 12 in particular, that the methodology is only eligible if the implementation of the project activity "do not reduce the amount of organic waste that would be recycled in the absence of the project activity", in accordance with VVM version 01.2 paragraphs 71. ii) the DOE has validated the steps taken to assess the identification of the baseline scenario of the project activity, in particular, what would have happened to the waste in the baseline, in accordance with VVM version 01.2 paragraph 84. Please refer to VVM version 1.2 paragraphs 71,the DOE shall determine whether the project activity meets each of the applicability conditions of the approved methodology or any tool or other methodology component referred to therein.. |
