87  Polyethylene
 (1) Tonnes of pelletised polyethylene that:
 (a) has a standard density equal to or greater than 0.910 g/cm3; and
 (b) is produced as part of carrying on the polyethylene production activity at the facility; and
 (c) is of saleable quality.
 (2) The metric in subsection (1) is applicable to a facility that conducts the activity of producing polyethylene through the chemical transformation ethene (ethylene (C2H4)) to produce polyethylene with a standard density equal to or greater than 0.910 g/cm3 (the polyethylene production activity).
 (3) The default emissions intensity is 0.125 t CO2‑e per tonne of pelletised polyethylene.
 (4) In this section:
standard density, for polyethylene, means the density of polyethylene moulded to a thickness of 1.9 mm using Procedure C of Annex A1 to ASTM D4703‑16 (2016).
