69  Project emissions—lime
 (1) For the reporting period the total quantity of carbonates (CaCO3 or CaMg(CO3)2) applied to each relevant carbon estimation area must be calculated using the following formula:
  Equation L1

      Where:

  =  total carbonates applied during the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t.
  =  quantity of lime type l applied in the sequestration period of the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t.
 =  percentage carbonate content of lime type l, as provided by the manufacturer; decimal.
 Note: The percentage carbonate content of lime is described as its neutralising value.
 l =  type of lime as defined by the percent carbonate content.
 n =  number of types of lime applied in the sequestration period of the reporting period.
 (2) The quantity of carbon dioxide emissions released from lime applied to each relevant carbon estimation area must be calculated using the following formula:
  Equation L2

      Where:

 =  total carbon dioxide emissions from lime applied in the reporting period to carbon estimation area A; t CO2-e.
  =  total carbonates applied during the reporting period in carbon estimation area A; t.
  =  National Inventory Report emission factor for carbonates; t CO2-e / t carbonate.
Note: The parameter  is the National Inventory Report emission factor for dolomite, which was 0.13 t CO2-e / t carbonate at the time the determination commenced. The emission factor is to be applied to all lime and dolomite types.
