BalanceCO2 - Landfill Gas Emission
     Reduction Projects in US
  BalanceCO2 has the opportunity to generate approximately 800,000 Verified
  Emission Reductions (VERs) (vintage 2000-2008) from collection and flaring of
landfill gas (LFG) at three (3) Offset Development Projects in the United States to
          obtain methane or greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions.
                                                                                      BCO2 - 1
Project Goals and Objectives
Goals: Development and Registration of Landfill Methane Reduction
Objectives:
•   Review regulatory applicability (Title V permits, New Source Performance
    Standards (NSPS), State and others), financial incentives for project and
    determine if GHG emission reductions are real, additional and can be quantified
•   Applicability & Selection of Registries (CCX, VCS, CCAR, ACR, TCR & others)
•   Confirmation of Project eligibility
      Validation of GHG emission reduction activities and due diligence
      Complete Project Questionnaire for Pre-Approval by Registry
•   Prepare detailed documentation for registration
•   Pass independent Third party Verification
•   Apply for registration as Offset Provider / Use Registry Aggregator for Trading
•   Receipts of contract credits for vintage years registered and management of sale
    proceeds according to revenue-sharing arrangement

                                                                                   BCO2 - 2
Preliminary Findings
•   Protocols and Registries – Project Eligibility Criteria:
        California Climate Action Registry (CCAR): Requires Start after January 2001.
        Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS): Requires Start after January 1, 2001.
        Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX): Start after January 1, 1999.
        American Carbon Registry (ACR): Start after January 1, 2000

•   Project Location and Description
      Projects located in Georgia, Connecticut and Louisiana
      All three emission reduction projects with start dates between January – June 2000
      LFG collection and flaring


•   Regulatory Applicability
      Project Landfills are not subject to NSPS
      Combustion (Flaring) of methane (GHG) qualify as emission reduction (Offset)




                                                                                            BCO2 - 3
Project Status & Timeline
•     Due-diligence to determine eligibility as viable Offset projects through review and
      collection of LFG flow records needed to meet third party verification requirements
•     Development of GHG Emissions Report in progress – To be prepared in accordance
      with World Resources Institute’s (WRI) “The GHG Protocol: A Corporate Accounting
      and Reporting Standard,” revised March 2004

Future Opportunities

• BCO2 plans to undertake development of 2009 and 2010 Vintage
  Offsets

• Potential Offset development opportunities from project
  upgrades leading to an additional 60,000 aggregated VERs per
  annum.

• Potential REC development opportunities leading to 4.5 MW
  aggregated from three sites.
