Audit Analysis
A-Gas 2018-4 is a one-time ozone-depleting substance destruction project in Ohio under the CAR/ARB compliance framework, verified by GHD Services. The project type is inherently low-risk because ODS destruction is a permanent, verifiable event with no reversal or leakage exposure, but the available documents do not explicitly detail the additionality test or baseline methodology. ERR figures are fully consistent between claimed and verified values, and no material findings or corrective actions were reported.
Red Flags
- Additionality test type and verification by the VVB are not stated in the extracted record; the compliance framework implies additionality but no explicit test (investment, regulatory, or barrier) is documented.
- Baseline method and last reassessment date are not stated; for an ODS project the baseline is typically the business-as-usual release of the substance, but the methodology's specific baseline treatment is not confirmed in the available documents.
- Leakage deduction and justification are absent; while ODS destruction inherently produces negligible leakage, no explicit statement or protocol citation confirming zero leakage is found.
