14A Application specifying primary steel as production variable may specify steelmaking production variables as historical production variables

(1) An application under section 14 for an emissions intensity determination that specifies primary steel as a production variable may also specify the following production variables (the steelmaking production variables) as historical production variables for the facility: (a) the primary iron (steelmaking) production variable; and (b) the ferrous feed (steelmaking) production variable.

Note: Section 19A applies to an application which specifies the steelmaking production variables as historical production variables.

(2) Despite paragraph 12(2)(b), the steelmaking production variables may be specified as historical production variables for a facility even if one or both of them was a non‑commercial production variable for the facility for a historical financial year. (3) Despite paragraph 16(2)(b), covered emissions of greenhouse gases from the operation of a facility during a particular historical financial year that are of a particular kind may be attributed to both a steelmaking production variable and to the primary steel production variable. (4) Despite paragraph 16(3)(d), covered emissions of greenhouse gases from the operation of a facility during a particular historical financial year may be attributed to both a steelmaking production variable and to the primary steel production variable.

Note: Emissions associated with the production of primary iron and continuously cast carbon steel products and ingots of carbon steel would also be relevantly associated with primary steel.

(5) In this Part: continuously cast carbon steel products and ingots of carbon steel (manufacture of carbon steel from cold ferrous feed) production variable means the production variable in section 44 of Schedule 1. ferrous feed (steelmaking) production variable means the production variable in section 44A of Schedule 1. primary iron (steelmaking) production variable means the production variable in section 39A of Schedule 1. primary iron production variable means the production variable in section 39 of Schedule 1. primary steel production variable means the production variable in section 41 of Schedule 1. steelmaking production variables has the meaning given by subsection (1).
