CDM project activity/programme of activities issuance request review form (CDM-ISSR-FORM) (Version 03.0)

Project title of the project activity or programme of activities (PoA) for which issuance is requested	Methane Recovery in Wastewater Treatment, Project AIN07-W-04, Sumatera Utara, Indonesia (2130)
DOE that requested for issuance and date of request	SIRIM (26 Nov 10)
Please indicate, in accordance with paragraphs 65 of the CDM modalities and procedures, for which reason(s) you request review
Incompetence
Please indicate reasons for the request for review
1. AMS-III.H, ver.7, paragraph 15 requires that “the project emissions will be monitored by regular measurements and recording of the flow of wastewater”. However, as per the monitoring plan, the flow of the wastewater treated (Qy,ww) is being calculated from “FFB production data and site verified effluent conversion factor and to be field verified by a third party on an annual basis”. The DOE is required to clarify how it has verified that the monitoring of Qy,ww is in line with the requirements of the applied methodology. 2. The consistency of some cumulative flow meter readings is not clear: for Flares 1 and 2, the value reported in a subsequent period of time is lower than the previous one reported, as for example in cells F508, F642, F658, F666, P508, P658, P1926, P1927 of the spreadsheet "Month 2 2009". The DOE is requested to further clarify the consistency of the values reported, in line with the VVM requirements 209 (c). 3. The monitoring plan requires the “Chemical oxygen demand of the wastewater entering the anaerobic treatment system” (CODy,ww,untreated) to be monitored semi-annually by a third party (sampling and analysis). However, the sampling for the third party analyses has been done internally. The monitoring plan also requires internal sampling on a monthly basis, however no internal measurements have been conducted for January and February 2010. The DOE is requested to clarify how it has verified that the monitoring of the CODy,ww,untreated is in line with the requirements of the monitoring plan.
