$189 per site location!

EPA will require mandatory reporting of Greenhouse Gases. On October 30, 2009, EPA published its final rule that goes into effect January 1, 2010. Certain suppliers, facilities and all major emitters of GHG will have to record and report their GHG emissions. Who must comply? How does a company comply? The webinar will cover topics of interest to electricity generators and other emitters and suppliers of GHGs:

EPA (and legislative and judicial) activity in the GHG arena

Who must comply with the new GHG reporting rule

Options on data needs and GHG management strategies - know your choices

Details on Subpart C & D - General Stationary Fuel Combustion Sources & Electricity Generation

How compliance can be achieved -- risks, costs and liability

How to use this reporting obligation as an opportunity to manage inventory and strategically prepare for possible future GHG regulations
