STEP 5 If you are transferring SO 2

years following a specified year) unless the allowances are allocated to an Acid Rain opt

" In perpetuity " allows you, for years beginning in 2010, to select only the first year you would like

to transfer. For all years thereafter, the same transfers are recorded.

STEP 6 Enter the vintage year and serial numbers of the allowances to be transferred. Enter the number

of allowances to be transferred in the "Total" column. Verify the accuracy of your entries by

computing one of the following simple equations reflecting the equivalent relationships:

Start Number = End Number

End Number = Start Number + Total

 1

Allowances with different vintage years must be entered on separate lines.
