Strata in a pre-existing project
 (10) For a pre-existing project to which section 15 applies, each stratum reported in the relevant offsets report mentioned in section 15 is taken to be defined as a stratum of the project under this determination (a pre-existing stratum).
Note: If the proponent wishes to change a pre-existing stratum, it will become a superseded stratum subject to section 21.
 (11) Subsection (8) applies to a pre-existing stratum.
 (12) For a pre-existing stratum, the following apply:
 (a) any full inventory or PSP assessment conducted in the stratum in accordance with the former determination is taken to have been conducted in accordance with this determination;
 (b) any TSPs or PSPs established in the stratum in accordance with the former determination are taken to have been established in accordance with this determination;
 (c) any data collected in relation to the TSPs or PSPs in accordance with the former determination is taken to have been collected in accordance with this determination;
 (d) if a full inventory was conducted in the stratum in accordance with the former determination, subsection 85(4) does not apply to the stratum;
 (e) in subsection 19(1), subsection 47(2), subsections 95(3) and (4) (definitions of Vj, vj and SEVj), subsection 96(3), subsection 98(3) (definition of Qj,p), section 99 (definitions of Rj,p and Qj,p), subsection 115(3) (definition of NF,j), and subsection 116(1) (definition of NF,j):
 (i) a reference to a 'previous reporting period' includes a reference to a reporting period under the former determination; and
 (ii) a reference to an offsets report includes a reference to an offsets report under the former determination; and
 (iii) a reference to a certificate of entitlement includes a reference to a certificate of entitlement issued under the former determination.
Note: The main effects of this subsection are that:
(a) if PSPs were established under the former determination, the proponent will be able to continue using the PSPs and existing PSP data to conduct PSP assessments until 5 years after the last full inventory conducted under the former determination; and
(b) sections 19 (revision of strata after growth disturbances) and 115 (calculation of fire emissions) apply to a pre-existing stratum during the first reporting period under this determination.
