Section 340-272-0435 - Documentation of Differences and Modifications to Reports and Fuel Pathway Applications

(1) While conducting verification services and data checks, the verification team must:

(a) Determine correctable errors using professional judgment, including whether differences are not errors but result from truncation, rounding, or averaging; and

(b) Document the source of any difference identified, including whether the difference results in a correctable error or whether the difference does not require further investigation because it is the result of truncation, rounding, or averaging.

(2) As a result of data checks conducted by the verification team and before completion of a verification statement(s), the responsible entity must fix all correctable errors that affect the data in the submitted report or fuel pathway application, and submit a revised report or fuel pathway application to DEQ.

(a) Failure to fix all correctable errors identified before the completion of the verification services and submit a revised report or fuel pathway application to DEQ will result in an adverse verification statement.

(b) Failure to fix misreported data that do not affect credit or deficit calculations in CFP reports submitted under OAR chapter 340, division 253 represents a nonconformance but does not, absent other errors, result in an adverse verification statement.

(c) Failure to fix misreported data that do not affect emissions in emissions data reports submitted under OAR chapter 340, division 215 represents a nonconformance but does not, absent other errors, result in an adverse verification statement.
