1) The DOE has verified that for the monitoring period from March 2010 to January 2011 (11 months) the volume of FFB (fresh fruit bunches) processed  was 327,170 tonnes or about 26% higher than what was  projected in the PDD (maximum of 260,000 tonnes)  thereby resulting in a corresponding increase of 24.5% over the projected emission reductions from the project activity. The DOE is requested to  explain whether the increase in production is within the maximum design capacity of the plant,  and if so, whether such increase  could have  been anticipated by the PP and might have required an upgrading of the baseline treatment system. Furthermore, considering that the increase in FFB processing has been observed for the most part of this monitoring period, the DOE is requested to assess if this is a permanent change and why notification of changes in the PDD was not submitted as per Procedures for notifying and requesting approval of changes from the project activity as described in the registered PDD, EB48 Annex 66. Please refer to VVM v.1.2 para 197..
