Title: ●Determination of Confidential Business Information Collected Under the GHG Mandatory Reporting Program
Abstract: On September 22, 2009, the Administrator signed a final rule establishing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reporting requirements for approximately 10,000 facilities and suppliers in the U.S. Monitoring starts January 1, 2010, and the first reports are due to EPA on March 31, 2011. In anticipation of releasing the data we collect to the public, EPA is launching an effort to proactively determine which data elements we collect are confidential business information, considering the definition of "emissions data" under the Clean Air Act. We will provide the public and reporters an opportunity to comment and then issue our final determination. This process needs to be completed before releasing the data to the public in 2011.
