Regulation by clause

8 Method of calculating emissions by obligation jet fuel participants
  • (1) An obligation jet fuel participant must calculate the emissions from each class of obligation jet fuel purchased by that participant from obligation fuel participants in a year in accordance with the following formula:

    T = L × E

    where—

    T
    is the total emissions for the obligation jet fuel in tonnes
    L
    is the total net kilolitres of the obligation jet fuel recorded under regulation 7
    E
    is,—
    • (a) in relation to any class of obligation jet fuel for which no unique emissions factor is in force, the emissions factor for the obligation jet fuel specified in the table set out in the Schedule; or

    • (b) in relation to any class of obligation jet fuel for which a unique emissions factor is in force, the unique emissions factor.

    (1A) An annual emissions return submitted by an obligation jet fuel participant must record the participant's total emissions from an activity listed in Part 3 of Schedule 4 of the Act in the relevant year, calculated by adding together the emissions for each class of obligation jet fuel calculated under subclause (1).

    (2) If an obligation jet fuel participant is required to submit an emissions return for a period other than a year, this regulation applies with any necessary modifications.

    (3) For the purposes of this regulation, a fraction of a kilolitre must be rounded up to the next whole kilolitre if the fraction is 50% or more of a kilolitre; otherwise the fraction of a kilolitre must be rounded down to the previous whole kilolitre.
