 (1) Tonnes of nitrogen removed, calculated in accordance with subsection (4).
 (2) The metric in subsection (1) is applicable to a facility whose primary activity is the handling of either or both of domestic or commercial wastewater and which reports emissions under Division 5.3 of the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
 (3) The default emissions intensity is 4.48 t CO2‑e per tonne of nitrogen removed.
 (4) For paragraph (1), nitrogen removed is given by the following equation:
  nitrogen removed = Nmeasured entering – (Nin effluent leaving site + Nin sludge leaving site)
where:
Nmeasured entering is the nitrogen entering the site measured consistently with the requirements in Division 5.3 of the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
Nin effluent leaving site is the nitrogen leaving the site measured consistently with the requirements in Division 5.3 of the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
Nin sludge leaving site is the nitrogen in sludge leaving the site measured consistently with the requirements in Division 5.3 of the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
