or to comply with a requirement relating to greenhouse gas emissions set out in a federal or provincial law; and (g) the responsible person for the unit submits to the Minister, in the emissions report submitted under section 39 for the calendar year, the information set out in section 8 of Schedule 5 in respect of the volume. Weighted average (CC A ) (4) The weighted average CC A referred to in paragraphs (1)(a) to (c) is determined by the formula The quotient of the following two sums: the sum of the product resulting from the multiplication of Qi and CCi for each sampling period “i” and the sum of Qi for each sampling period “i”. where i is the i th sampling period that is set out for the fuel type in subsection 34 (2), where “i” goes from 1 to n and where n is the number of sampling periods; CC i is the carbon content of each sample or composite sample, as the case may be, of the fossil fuel for the i th sampling period — expressed for gaseous fuels, liquid fuels and solid fuels, respectively, in the same unit of measure as that set out in the description of CC A in paragraph (1)(a), (b) or (c), as applicable — as provided by the supplier of the fossil fuel to the responsible person or, if not so provided, as determined in the following manner: (a) in the case of a gaseous fuel, (i) in accordance with one of the following standards, as applicable: (A) ASTM D1945, entitled Standard Test Method for Analysis of Natural Gas by Gas Chromatography , (B) ASTM UOP539, entitled Refinery Gas Analysis by Gas Chromatography , (C) ASTM D7833, entitled Standard Test Method for Determination of Hydrocarbons and Non-Hydrocarbon Gases in Gaseous Mixtures by Gas Chromatography , or (D) API Technical Report 2572, entitled Carbon Content, Sampling, and Calculation , published by the American Petroleum Institute, or (ii) by means of a direct measuring device, (b) in the case of a liquid fuel, in accordance with one of the following standards or methods, as applicable: (i) API Technical Report 2572, entitled Carbon Content, Sampling, and Calculation , published by the American Petroleum Institute, (ii) ASTM D5291, entitled Standard Test Methods for Instrumental Determination of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen in Petroleum Products and Lubricants , or (iii) the ASTM standard that applies to the fossil fuel type, or if there is no such ASTM standard, an applicable internationally recognized method, and (c) in the case of a solid fuel, on the same wet or dry basis as that used in the determination of CC A , in accordance with (i) for a solid fuel derived from waste, ASTM E777, entitled Standard Test Method for Carbon and Hydrogen in the Analysis Sample of Refuse-Derived Fuel , and (ii) for any other solid fuel type, in accordance with an ASTM standard for the measurement of the carbon content of the fuel type or, if there is no such ASTM standard, in accordance with an applicable internationally recognized method; and Q i is the volume or mass, as the case may be, of the fossil fuel combusted during the i th sampling period, determined (a) using flow meters and expressed in m 3 at standard conditions, in the case of a gaseous fuel, (b) using flow meters and expressed in kL, in the case of a liquid fuel, and (c) using a measuring device and expressed in tonnes, on the same wet or dry basis as that used in the determination of CC A , in the case of a solid fuel.
