12E  Requirements for restarting biomethane displacement-only projects

         A restarting biomethane displacement-only project must:
           (a)  occur at a biomethane facility that was part of an eligible offsets project (the forerunner project):
              (i) that involved the carrying out of biomethane production; and
              (ii) for which the applicable methodology determination was:
                   (A) this determination; or
                   (B) an earlier version of this determination applicable in accordance with section 125, 126, 127 or 130 of the Act; and
              (iii) the crediting period for which has expired; and
           (b)  involve biomethane production; and
           (c)  have a crediting period greater than zero under section 16B.

            Note: A restarting biomethane displacement-only project will only earn credits for the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production (see paragraph 17A(e)). Such a project may also involve landfill gas capture for biomethane or emissions destruction, but no credits will be issued in relation to those project activities.
