8.D. - Page 76 <br /> ICLEI and the LGO Protocol provide standard methodologies for calculating err�issions from the sources shown in the <br /> following table. Other sources of erni�sions,such as those associated with the production of consuined products do not <br /> y�t have standard calculation methodologies and are thus excluded from this inventory. <br /> Table 6: Inventoried Emissions Sources bv Scone <br /> � . � � ; <br /> Fuel consLnned at facilities Purchased electricity consLnned by Solid�nraste generated by <br /> facilities veininent o rations <br /> Fuel consLnned by vehicle fleet and Purchased electricity consLnned by Fuel consLnned by vehicles cluring <br /> mobile Lri t electric vehicles lo coininutin <br /> Fuel consLnned to erate electrici Purchased steam <br /> Leaked refrigerants from facilities and <br /> vehicles Purchased coolin (chilled water) <br /> Leaked/d lo fire s sants <br /> Solid waste in verninent landfills <br /> Wastewater decornposition and <br /> treatment at a mLmicipal wastewater <br /> treatment lant <br /> Orqanizational Boundaries <br /> The organizational boLmdary for the inventory deten�nines wizich aspects of operations are included in the emissions <br /> inventory, and wizich are not. Under the LGO Protocol, tw� control approaches are used for reporting emissions: <br /> operational control or financial control. A local governinent l�as operational control over an operation if it has full <br /> authority to introduce and irnplement policies that ii�act the operation A local governinent has financial control if the <br /> operation is fully consolidated in financial accoLmts. If a local governinent has joint control over an operation, the <br /> contractual agreeinent will l�ave to be examined to see wizo has authority over operating policies and impleinentation, <br /> and thus the responsibility to report emissions Lmder operational control. <br /> LGO Protocol strongly encourages local governinents to utilize operational control as the organization boLmdaiy for a <br /> governinent operations emissions inventory. Operational control is believed to most accLnately represent the emissions <br /> soLnces tl�at local governinents can most directly influence, and this boLmdary is consistent with other environinental <br /> and air quality reporting program requirerrients. For this reason, this inventory was conducted according to the <br /> operational control framew�rk <br /> Tvpes of Emissions <br /> As descnbed in the LGO Protocol,emissions from each of the greenhouse gases can come in a number of forn�s: <br /> Stationary or mobile combustion: These are eini�sions resulting from on site combustion of fuels (nat�'al gds, diesel, <br /> gasoline,etc.)to generate heat,electricity,or to pow�r vehicles and mobile eqLripment. <br /> I I ' � ii i 1 i i i i <br />
