How will the GHG Reporting Rule fit in or be harmonized with state and local reporting obligations for criteria pollutants, toxics, and state-specific GHG reporting requirements?
Greenhouse gas emissions data collected under the Final Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Rule will be appended to NEI/EIS (National Emissions Inventory/Emissions Inventory System), the agency repository for criteria and toxics emissions data. EPA expects that most facilities and suppliers reporting under the rule will already be in EIS. Where state GHG reporting requirements closely align with the mandatory reporting rule, EPA is working with states to share data and minimize the reporting burden. Where state GHG reporting requirements go beyond the mandatory reporting rule, EPA is working with states and stakeholders to explore options to harmonize reporting requirements.
