36  Requirement to monitor certain parameters
 (1) The project proponent must, during a reporting period, monitor and determine any parameter that is required to calculate the carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for the reporting period or a future reporting period:
 (a) in a manner that is consistent with the NGER (Measurement) Determination; or
 (b) if the NGER (Measurement) Determination does not include any relevant requirements, in a manner that is consistent with relevant standards and other requirements under the National Measurement Act 1960.
Note:  Storage site monitoring emissions and storage site fugitive emissions are monitored for each reporting period in the extended accounting period and their cumulative sum is used to calculate the carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for the reporting period in the extended accounting period in which a return event occurs—see section 26.
 (2) Any equipment or device used to monitor a parameter must be calibrated:
 (a) in a manner that is consistent with the NGER (Measurement) Determination; or
 (b) if the NGER (Measurement) Determination does not include any relevant requirements, by an accredited third-party technician at intervals, and using methods, that are in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.
