Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
The following requirements are in addition to requirements
				  contained in WAC
				  173-424-410 and
				  173-424-430.
(1) Quarterly reports must contain the
				information specified in Table 9 under WAC
				173-424-900 for each
				transportation fuel subject to the CFP.
(2)
Specific (quarterly) reporting
				parameters for natural gas (including CNG, LNG, and L-CNG) used as
				transportation fuel.
Any registered party must report the following
				parameters for each fueling facility to which CNG, LNG, L-CNG, is supplied as a
				transportation fuel:
(a) The amount of fuel
				dispensed must be reported per fuel dispensing equipment, as required for
				registration in WFRS, with a certified fuel pathway code and with transaction
				type "NGV fueling."
(b) For CNG and
				L-CNG, the amount of fuel dispensed in therms at higher heating value per
				reporting period separately for all light/medium (LDV and MDV), heavy-duty
				vehicles with compression engines (HDV-CIE), and heavy-duty vehicles with spark
				ignition engines (HDV-SIE).
(c) For
				LNG, the amount of fuel dispensed in gallons per reporting period separately
				for all LDV/MDV, HDV-CIE, and HDV-SIE.
(d) For CNG, L-CNG, and LNG, the carbon
				intensity as listed in Table 6, Washington Carbon Intensity Lookup Fuel Pathway
				WAC 173-424-900.
(e) For biomethane-based CNG, LNG, and L-CNG,
				the carbon intensity as approved under WAC
				173-424-610 and the EPA
				production company identification number and facility identification number.
				Additionally, if the biomethane-based volumes are being reported using a
				book-and-claim methodology, the registered party must submit records showing
				the retirement of renewable thermal certificates representing the biomethane
				environmental attributes from that facility in M-RETS renewable thermal system
				or another approved and recognized tracking system with the quarterly report.
				The retirement records must show enough renewable thermal certificates were
				retired to cover the volume of biomethane claimed as a fuel in the CFP and
				those certificates must be from the same biomethane production facility to
				which the fuel pathway code is assigned. If biogas or biomethane is being used
				that is directly delivered to a vehicle and not injected into a pipeline, the
				registered party must provide the following attestation when it files the
				quarterly report for the corresponding volume of biogas or biomethane claimed.
"I certify that to the extent that the gas used in the fuel
				  pathway or supplied as transportation fuel is characterized as biomethane,
				  __________ (registered party name) owns the exclusive rights to the
				  corresponding environmental attributes.
____________ (registered party name) has not sold,
				  transferred, or retired those environmental attributes in any program or
				  jurisdiction other than the federal RFS.
Based on diligent inquiry and review of contracts and
				  attestations from our business partners, I certify under penalty of perjury
				  under the laws of the State of Washington that no other party has or will sell,
				  transfer, or retire the environmental attributes corresponding to the
				  biomethane for which _________________ (registered party name) claims credit in
				  the CFP program."
(f) The
				total quantity of fuel, summed across all fuel pathway codes, dispensed for
				transportation purpose through the fuel supplying equipment during the
				reporting period.
(g) When the
				vehicle application is unknown, for the purpose of reporting, a fueling event
				of less than 3,500 MJ (30 gasoline gallon equivalents) of fuel dispensed must
				be reported as NGV fueling of LDV/MDV. A fueling event of 3,500 MJ or more must
				be reported as NGV fueling of HDV.
