Monitoring Checklist
United States
Environmental Protection
Agency
Final Rule: Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases
What Must Be Monitored?
If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters on a monthly basis...
Volume of gaseous feedstock (standard
cubic feet [scfj) (with flow meter)
Carbon content of gaseous feedstock
(kilogram [kg] C per kg of feedstock)
Molecular weight of the gaseous
feedstock (kg/kg-mole)
Volume of liquid feedstock (gallons)
(with flow meter)
Carbon content of liquid feedstock
(kg C per gallon of feedstock)
Mass of solid feedstock (kg)
(from company records and aggregated
on monthly basis)
Carbon content of solid feedstock
(kg C per kg of feedstock)
Volume of waste recycle stream, if
applicable (scf)
Carbon content of waste recycle stream,
if applicable (kg C per kg of waste
recycle stream)
Molecular weight of the waste recycle
stream, if applicable (kg/kg-mole)
Annual urea production, if applicable
(metric tons)
Total pounds of synthetic fertilizer
produced and total nitrogen contained in
that fertilizer.
If using a CEMS:
In addition to the monitoring requirements under 40 CFR subpart C for the
Tier 4 Calculation Methodology, measure these parameters...
D Annual quantity of each type of
feedstock consumed for ammonia
manufacturing (scf of gaseous
feedstock, gallons of liquid
feedstock, and kg of solid feedstock)
