Cover title. On cover: Canada's greenhouse gas offset credit system. "EC22043." Includes bibliographical references. "Methane (CH₄) emissions from landfills are generated by the anaerobic decomposition of organic material in the buried waste. The installation of a landfill gas (LFG) recovery and destruction system enables the landfill CH₄ to be converted into biogenic carbon dioxide, instead of allowing it to be passively released to the atmosphere. The Landfill Methane Recovery and Destruction protocol is intended for use by a proponent undertaking a project to actively recover and destroy LFG to generate offset credits under the Canadian Greenhouse Gas Offset Credit System Regulations. The proponent must follow the methodology and requirements set out in this protocol to quantify andreport greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions generated by the eligible project activities. Thisprotocol is designed to ensure the project generates GHG emission reductions that are real, additional, quantified, verified, unique and permanent. The protocol is also developed in accordance with the principles of ISO 14064-2:2019 Greenhouse gases – Part 2 – Specification with guidance at the project level for quantification, monitoring and reporting greenhouse gas emission reductions or removal enhancements to ensure reported GHG emission reductions generated as a result of implementing the project activities are relevant, complete, consistent, accurate, transparent, and conservative"--Introduction, page 1.
