15A Eligible animal effluent biogas waste

In relation to a project, eligible animal effluent biogas waste is organic effluent that:

(a) was produced by either:

(i) an eligible animal facility; or

(ii) a facility that produces materials of one or more listed types as a waste stream; and

(i) consists of animal effluent; or

(ii) satisfies the following:

(A) the organic effluent consists principally of materials of one or more listed types;

(B) if it includes material that is not of a listed type—that material contributes no more than 2% of the methane avoided or combusted by the project over the reporting period; (C) the effluent was not diverted from a facility that is part of an eligible offsets project related to the avoidance of methane emissions; and

(c) would reasonably have been expected to be treated in an anaerobic pond if it was not treated by anaerobic digestion.
