(a)
Deficit Calculation for CARBOB or
						Diesel Fuel.
A fuel reporting entity for CARBOB or diesel fuel must
						calculate separately the base deficit and incremental deficit for each fuel or
						blendstock derived from petroleum feedstock as specified in this provision.

(3)
Process for Calculating the Annual Crude Average Carbon Intensity
						Value.
(A) An Annual Crude Average
						carbon intensity value will be calculated for each calendar year using a
						volume-weighted average of crude carbon intensity values. The volume for each
						imported crude will be the total volume of that crude reported by all fuel
						reporting entities in the Annual Compliance Reports for the calendar year.
						Volume contributions for California State fields will be based on oil
						production data from the California Department of Conservation and volume
						contributions for California Federal Offshore fields will be based on oil
						production data from the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement. Field
						production volumes for California-produced crude will be reduced, if necessary,
						to account for crude exports. Crude carbon intensity values are those listed in
						Table 9. For crude names not listed, the default carbon intensity value from
						Table 9 will be used until the crude name and carbon intensity value is added
						to Table 9 as described in section
						95489(b)(3).
(B) Within 15 days of receiving the Annual
						Compliance reports, the Executive Officer shall post the Annual Crude Average
						carbon intensity calculation at the LCFS web site for public comment. Written
						comments shall be accepted for 15 days following the date on which the analysis
						was posted. Only comments related to potential factual or methodological errors
						in the posted Annual Crude Average carbon intensity value may be considered.
						The Executive Officer shall evaluate the comments received and, if the
						Executive Officer deems it necessary, may request in writing additional
						information or clarification from the commenters. Commenters shall be provided
						10 days to respond to these requests. The Executive Officer shall post the
						final Annual Crude Average carbon intensity value at the LCFS web site within
						15 days of receiving positive or qualified positive MCON verification reports
						per section
						95500. An adverse verification
						statement would result in Executive Officer investigation and may result in
						delay of finalizing and posting the Annual Crude Average carbon intensity
						value.
(C) Revisions to the OPGEE
						model, addition of crudes to Table 9, and updates to all carbon intensity
						values listed in Table 9 will be considered on a three-year cycle through
						proposed amendments of the Low Carbon Fuel Standard regulation.
