Background: Review Purpose
• Assist Parties in improving the quality of their inventories.
• Ensure that EMEP has adequate and reliable information;
• Advise Parties and the Centres on gaps & revision needed in country data;
• Inform modelling assessment centres on the use/application of inventory data vs other data.
• Provide the Implementation Committee with assessment of the annual quantitative and qualitative inventory information submitted by Parties;
Scoping paper Proposals
• Objectives• Scope• Responsibilities• Procedures• Timetable• Resources
Scoping Report: Stage 3 Objectives
• Check the Quality of emissions reporting– Check application of Good Practice
• Improve the Quality of emissions– Identify good practice– Capacity Building (involvement in review)
• Establish a common approach for Review (Harmonisation)– Consistency with UNFCCC – Applicability for NEC
Scoping Report: Scope & Frequency
• Priority Pollutants – CO, NOx, NMVOC, NH3, and SO2; Cd, Hg, Pb; Particulate matter (PM2.5 and
PM10); dioxins and furans, the PAH compounds and HCB
• Annual centralised reviews (Like UNFCCC)– National Sectoral (Historic Timeseries)– Activity Data– IIR– 10-15 Parties per year (2-3 Central Reviews)
− Rolling Programme
− Or Parties chosen by the Implementation Committee
• 5-yearly review – gridded data, – projections – large point source data
• Focus on Key Sources– Quality (TCCCA)– identification of missing sources
Scoping Report: Timing of Review (Options)
• September + 0 year.. ?– Competes with UNFCCC reviews – A Rush to include feedback.. – Findings available for Inventory update.. Just..
• June…..• January + 1 year.. ?
– Build on UNFCCC Review – Reviewing an “Old” Inventory – Time to incorporate recommendations in next
inventory – Competes with inventory submissions
Scoping Report: Responsibilities
• Collection and storage of reported emissions and wider data for review – UNECE Secretariat & The EMEP emission centre , EEA
• Stage 1 & 2 Review
– The EMEP emission centre
• Stage 3 review– Establishing and maintaining the roster of experts
− The Executive Body of the Convention
– Identifying Parties for review− executive Body of the Convention supported by EMEP Steering Body ,
EMEP centres
– Provision of Review Experts− Parties (EPs) & EMEP Centres
– Organisation of the review. (Assigning expert reviewers & Managing the review activities and deliverables)
− The EMEP emission centre
– Performing the Review and Production of Review Findings− The review team and lead reviewer
Scoping Report: Procedures & Outputs
• Expert Review Team & Lead Reviewers– Detailed procedures for checks and review
− Recalculations, TCCC, Improvements
– 6 – 8 experts per Centralised review (1-2 Lead Reviewers)
– Lead Reviewers responsible and the Review teams findings
– Expert Review Team Responsible for the Quality of the Review Reports
• Expert Review Teams Composition– Balance between experts from Parties with different inventories and
national circumstances
– Expertise: − Energy and transport, Industrial Processes, Solvents and Other Products
Use and Waste and Agriculture
• Individual Review Report <10 pages. (Review Team)– Part 1: Summary of findings (TCCCA)
– Part 2: Specific Recommendations (Quality & Sectoral)
• Stage 3 Overview Report– The EMEP emission centre , EEA
Scoping Report: Timetable
Scoping Report: Resource Estimates
• EMEP emission centre • technical secretariat support 2 person-months (5 Countries/yr only) and would
include:– Stage 1&2 tests draft reports & communications;– Preparing for Stage 3 organisation & data;– Managing the review weeks;– Finalising the review reports &communication with the Parties.
• Expert resources per centralised review – 15 days per lead reviewer;– 7-10 days per expert;– Resources for travelling and accommodation.
• Country being reviewed– To answer questions and to comment on the individual review reports 3 days per country.

Scoping Report Summary: “What’s Needed for Effective Stage 3”• Clear requirements for Inventories e.g.
– Informative Inventory Report (IIR) – Use of templates– Clear Reporting Instructions/Guidelines
• Use of EMEP/CORINAIR Guidebook (or equivalent)– Use of methods (Minimum methods)– Good Practice requirements
• The Stage 1 & 2 to identify which country submissions are possible to review and inform and focus the Stage 3 review.
• Effective Review Teams & Co-ordination– Resources: Parties, Centres
• Maintain links to other inventory reviews.. (UNFCCC, EUMM, E-PRTR, EC funded activities, Ad-Hoc)
Next Steps
• Discuss & Agree Review Priorities (Dessau)
• Integration into ‘methods and procedures’ document (EB.AIR/GE.1/2005/7, annex III) (June)
• Presentation at the EMEP SB (September) endorsement from EMEP SB

Stage 3: Discussion (Dessau)
• Scope & Frequency– Pollutants?– Rolling Programme & Number of reviews/yr..?
• Timing – Sep, Jan or other?
• Responsibilities– Emissions Data Centre, Parties, EMEP
• Choosing and Using National Experts– Roster of Experts?– Selection of teams?
• Distribution of Review Reports– Who, what and when?
• Trial Review– Process for nomination of reviewers? – Test other steps necessary to be taken?
