Submission of comments to the DOE/AE Compilation of submitted inputs: 
On page 6 of the PDD, where does 85% efficiency derive from? Page 16, the options for use of the biogas must be evaluated and financial parameters used to measure options, even if the mill uses the gas, as stated in the Methodology additionality section. Page 19 does not mention a 10 day Measurement Campaign or using the 0.89 conservativeness factor in the calculations, and the efficiency in the data table uses 98.38%, but the data for the COD removal from the anerobic portion of the WWT system shows low 60% removal efficiency. Page 27, statement is made that for incomplete combustion in the flare, the GWP for methane is not considered - why is this?
