23  Calculating storage site monitoring emissions
 (1) The emissions from total fuel use for the project for conducting monitoring and verification activities for a reporting period, in tonnes CO2-e (the storage site monitoring emissions), are worked out using the formula (equation 13):
  EF  =  ∑f,k,s (Ef,k,s  ×  IPs  /  TIs)
  where:
  EF means emissions from total fuel use for the project for conducting monitoring and verification activities for the reporting period, in tonnes CO2-e.
  Ef,k,s means the emissions from fuel use during the reporting period for conducting monitoring and verification activities for a storage site s, for each fuel type f and each greenhouse gas type k, in tonnes CO2-e, as worked out using equation 14.
  k means the type of greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide, methane or nitrous oxide) emitted for a given fuel type.
  IPs means the total greenhouse gases injected by the project from the start of the crediting period for the project up to and including the current reporting period for permanent storage into storage site s, as ascertained by the project proponent.
  TIs means the total greenhouse gases injected by each person up to and including the current reporting period for permanent storage into storage site s, as ascertained by the project proponent.
       s means a storage site used by the project.
 (2) The emissions from fuel use during a reporting period for conducting monitoring and verification activities for a storage site s, each fuel type f and each greenhouse gas type k, in tonnes CO2-e, are worked out using the formula (equation 14):
  Ef,k,s  =  Qf,s  ×  ef  ×  Ffk  / 1000
  where:
  Ef,k,s means emissions from fuel use during the reporting period for conducting monitoring and verification activities for each fuel type f and each greenhouse gas type k and each storage site s, in tonnes CO2-e.
  Qf means the quantity of fuel type f combusted during the reporting period in undertaking monitoring and verification activities for storage site s (in kilolitres).
  Ef means energy content factor of fuel type f, as prescribed in Schedule 1 to the NGER (Measurement) Determination (in gigajoules per kilolitre).
  Ff,k means emissions factor for gas type k for fuel type f as prescribed in Schedule 1 to the NGER (Measurement) Determination (in kilograms CO2-e per gigajoule).
  f means fuel type.
  k means the type of greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide, methane or nitrous oxide) emitted for a given fuel type.
  s means a storage site used by the project.
