Amendment 219 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 2 – paragraph 1 – point 13 a (new)

Amendment 398 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 12 – paragraph 2
2. By … [24 months from the date of entry into force of this Regulation], operators shall also submit a report to the competent authorities containing direct measurementsquantification of source-level methane emissions for operated assets. Reporting at such level may involve the use of source- level measurement and sampling as the basis for establishing specific emission factors used for emissions estimationWhen emission factors are used, the quantification shall involve specific emission factors.

Amendment 415 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 12 – paragraph 3 – subparagraph 1
By … [36 months from the date of entry into force of this Regulation] and by 30 March every year thereafter, operators shall submit a report to the competent authorities containing direct measurementsquantification of source-level methane emissions for operated assets referred to in paragraph 2, complemented by measurements of site- level methane emissions, thereby allowing assessment and verification of the source- level estimates aggregated by site. If the technologies for site-level measurement do not reach satisfactory technology readiness levels or market availability an operator can request the competent authority to postpone site-level measurements by one year.

Amendment 491 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 12 – paragraph 8
8. In the case of significant discrepancies between the emissions quantified using source-level methods and those resulting from site-level measurement, additional measurements shall be carried ouoperators shall provide reasoning for the discrepancy. If the discrepancy is not due to the technological limits of employed quantification methods, the competent authority may request an additional measurement within the same reporting period.

Amendment 599 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 14 – paragraph 4 – subparagraph 2
TWhe repair or replacement of the components the first attempt referred to in the first subparagraph shall take place immediately after detection, or as soon as possible thereafter but no later than five days after detection, provided operators can demonstrate that safety or technical considerations do not allow immediate action and providedis not successful or possible due to safety, administrative, or technical considerations, the operators shall establish a repair and monitoring schedule no later than [30] days after detection.

Amendment 610 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 14 – paragraph 4 – subparagraph 3
Safety and technical considerations that do not allow immediate action, asThe repair and monitoring schedule referred to in the second subparagraph, shall be limited to taking into account safety to personnel and humans in proximity, environmental impacts, concentration of methane loss, accessibility to component, availability of replacement of the component. Environmental impact considerations may include instances whereby repair could lead to a higher level of methane emissions than in the absence of the repairfollow the existing European standards and guarantee that the environmental impact is minimized, while respecting safety, administrative, and technical considerations.

Amendment 619 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 14 – paragraph 4 – subparagraph 4
Where a system shutdown is required before the repair or replacement can be undertaken, operators shall minimise the leak within one day of detection and shall repair the leak by the end of the next scheduled system shutdown or within a year, whichever is sooner.Safety, administrative and technical considerations, as referred to in the second and third subparagraph, shall be limited to taking into account:
