20 Requirement to use Irrigated Cotton Calculator

(1) When performing calculations for the purposes of this Part: (a) the calculations must be performed using the Irrigated Cotton Calculator for each project area and for each year in the reporting period; and (b) the calculations must be performed by entering the inputs required by the Irrigated Cotton Calculator and specified in subsection (2); and (c) if a calculation includes a factor or parameter that is defined or calculated by reference to another instrument or writing, the factor or parameter to be used for a reporting period is the factor or parameter referred to in, or calculated by reference to, the instrument or writing as in force at the end of the reporting period.

Note: Paragraph (c) includes the global warming potentials for methane and nitrous oxide prescribed by the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Regulations 2008.

(2) For calculating the baseline and project emissions in the emissions intensity reference period and the crediting period, the information specified in the following table must be entered into the Irrigated Cotton Calculator in the specified units (if any):
