48  Non-routine adjustments
 (1) For the purpose of section 47, ENRA,h,m is the change in baseline emissions resulting from the non-routine adjustment for implementation h in eligible measurement time interval m in a reporting period, in tonnes CO2-e, worked out using either:
 (a) regression baseline emissions modelling or engineering baseline emissions modelling approaches consistent with this determination; or
 (b) a generally accepted energy efficiency measurement and verification practice that applies to changes of that kind.
 (2) The modelling approach or practice used for the purposes of subsection (1) must be the subject of a declaration that complies with this section that the modelling approach or practice complies with the requirements of this determination.
 (3) A declaration complies with this section if:
 (a) the declaration is made and signed by an independent measurement and verification professional; and
 (b) before making the declaration, the independent measurement and verification professional had been provided with all the information about the modelling approach or practice reasonably required for the professional to be satisfied that the model complies with the requirements of this determination; and
 (c) the information provided was accurate and did not contain anything that was false or misleading in a material particular; and
 (d) the project proponent obtained any documents supporting the making of the declaration from the independent measurement and verification professional:
 (i) at the same time as the signed declaration was provided to the project proponent by the independent measurement and verification professional; or
 (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable after the declaration was provided but, in any event, before the end of the reporting period in which the implementation to which the declaration relates is completed; and
 (e) the declaration is provided to the project proponent before the end of the reporting period in which the implementation to which it relates is completed.
 (4) To avoid doubt, this section applies to a transferring IEFE project only for reporting periods that end after the transfer date.
