The electronic Greenhouse Gas Reporting Tool (e-GGRT) will be down to prepare the system for RY2014 reporting beginning the evening of Friday, February 6th, 2015.
Before the maintenance period begins and in preparation for the upcoming RY14 e-GGRT reporting period, EPA encourages you to take care of any pending Certificate of Representation and Notice of Delegation related actions. These might include new representative or agent appointments, and changes in designated or alternate designated representatives. For more detail on these processes please review our help content on the topics using the links below. Please note that facility representatives or agents that are new to e-GGRT will need to complete user registration, including a paper Electronic Signature Agreement (ESA). Please allow several days for EPA to process and approve ESAs.

EPA has posted the final RY14 XML schema for Subpart W and the draft XML schema for Subpart C. These materials can be downloaded at RY14 XML Schema and Reporting Instructions. EPA expects to finalize the complete XML reporting schema for RY14 in late January.
EPA has also posted two new forms for Subpart W (Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems): the Subpart W Supersize Reporting Form for RY14 and the Subpart W Supersize Deferred Data Reporting Form for RY11-13. The "supersize" reporting forms are functionally identical to the standard reporting forms, except that the supersize forms can support up to 1,100 sub-basin or 5,000 individual units. If a facility needs this functionality, then both of these forms should be submitted as part of a facility's RY14 submission. The forms can be downloaded at Reporting Form Instructions.
If you have any questions regarding these tools please contact the GHGRP Help Desk.

Please note that the Agency expects to finalize the schema in late January.
