(a)
Facility Energy Consumption and
						Emissions Analysis.
The operator of each applicable facility described
						in section
						95601(a) must
						conduct an energy consumption and emissions analysis that identifies the
						facility's processes and equipment types used in the processes, and provides
						facility energy consumption and resulting greenhouse gas, criteria air
						pollutant, and toxic air contaminant emissions. The energy consumption and
						emissions analysis must be provided to the Executive Officer according to the
						reporting schedule identified in section
						95605 and include the information
						below and any additional information specified in section
						95605:
(1) Facility name, ARB identification number
						as assigned under the Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas
						Emissions, physical address, mailing address, geographic location (latitude and
						longitude at main gate or primary facility access point), NAICS code;
(2) Company name (if different than facility
						name);
(3) Name and contact
						information including email address and telephone number for the facility
						operator submitting the Assessment Report and for the person primarily
						responsible for preparing and submitting the Assessment Report, if different
						than the facility operator;
(4) If
						the assessment is conducted by a third party, the name and contact information
						including email address and telephone number of the company conducting and
						submitting the Assessment Report and the person primarily responsible for
						preparing the Assessment Report;
(5) Process flow diagram(s) of the facility,
						identifying each process or system and its geographic location;
(6) Name and description of each process or
						system and the equipment types used in each;
(7) Types of energy used in each process or
						system (i.e., natural gas, purchased electricity, etc.), and whether the energy
						is purchased or produced by the facility;
(8) Facility energy use and emissions as
						indicated below:
(A) amount of fuel consumed
						in 2009 for each fuel type (in MMBtu);
(B) amount of electricity consumed in 2009
						(in MMBtu);
(C) total energy
						consumption (sum of (A) and (B) above);
(D) greenhouse gas emissions in 2009,
						reported as CO2e emissions reported by the facility to
						comply with the Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas
						Emissions, Subchapter 10, Article 2, sections
						95100 to
						95133, title 17, California Code
						of Regulations;
(E) criteria air
						pollutant emissions reported by the facility to the District in 2009 or the
						previous most recent 12-month period, except as provided in (10) below, as
						required by Health and Safety Code, section
						40701(g),
						and District rules;
(F) toxic air
						contaminant emissions reported by the facility to the District in 2009 or the
						previous most recent 12-month period, except as provided in (10) below, as
						required by Health and Safety Code, sections
						44340,
						44341,
						and
						44344
						and the Emission Inventory Criteria and Guidelines Report for the Air Toxics
						"Hot Spots" Program, title 17, California Code of Regulations, section
						93300.5.
(9) Facility energy use and emissions
						reported in (8)(A) through (8)(D) above must be consistent with the facility's
						verified or certified greenhouse gas emissions data report submitted in
						accordance with the Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas
						Emissions, Subchapter 10, Article 2, sections
						95100 to
						95133, title 17, California Code
						of Regulations for the 2009 calendar year;
(10) Upon approval from the Executive
						Officer, the operator may provide the criteria and or toxics emissions
						inventory data indicated in (8) from a different calendar year(s), 12-month
						period, or a three-year average. Any request for approval for submittal of
						emissions inventory data from alternative calendar years, 12-month period, or a
						three-year average must be made in writing by the operator and submitted to the
						Executive Officer no later than December 1, 2011. The Executive Officer has 30
						days to approve or disapprove the request and will notify the operator in
						writing of the decision.
(11)
						Operators of facilities that were not required to report or are not reporting
						to the District facility criteria air pollutant and/or toxic air contaminant
						emissions shall include the most recent emissions calculated by the District
						for their facility, indicating the year to which the emissions are
						assigned.
