30  Baseline emissions number for landfill facility
 (1) The baseline emissions number for a landfill facility for a financial year is the number worked out using the following formula:
where:
ERC is the emissions reduction contribution for the facility for the financial year.
NLCH4 is the number of tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalence of covered emissions of greenhouse gases that would be emitted by the facility if emissions were not captured, and oxidation did not occur, at the facility during the financial year.
CER (known as the capture efficiency rate) is 0.372.
OF is the oxidation factor specified in section 5.4 of the NGER (Measurement) Determination (as in force at the start of the financial year) for near surface methane in landfill.
BA is the borrowing adjustment for the facility for the financial year.
 (2) The number worked out using the formula in subsection (1) is to be rounded to the nearest whole number (rounding up if the first decimal place is 5 or more).
