IES will then take this list of potential new measures (including strategies outlined in the 2025 LRTP) and determine the potential GHG reductions, energy savings and cost savings of each measure utilising the CCP Software and Protocol (transportation measures will be reported independently). Phase 5 — Identify a GHG Emission Target The previous phases will lead to the development of recommended GHG emission reduction targets for both the community and corporate operations. The historic, current and potential future measures will be analysed and compiled to create future GHG emission scenarios based on differing levels of investment on behalf of the Town. For instance, conservative and optimistic scenarios could be created to illustrate the level of future GHG emissions given different packages of potential measures. The scenario definitions and composition will be agreed upon by the Working Groups. By comparing the scenarios against the baseline inventory and Business as Usual (BAU) Forecast completed in phase 2, future GHG emissions targets can be established. At this stage in the project the Working Groups can consider the results of the measures quantification process and agree upon a recommended GHG emissions target. Phase 6 — Formulate and Approve Local Action Plan The last phase in the project will entail drafting a finalising the Local Action Plan. The report will be drafted by IES and then circulated to the Working Group for comment within a specified timeframe. The Advisory Group will be presented with the Draft Report. Comments will then be incorporated into the report and a final report will be produced. Should the report require approval by other staff, it will occur at this phase., The Final Report will be presented to the Advisory Group, the Transportation Advisory Committee of the DCHC MPO and the governing boards of Carrboro, Chapel Hill and Orange Country for adoption. The local governments will be provided with multiple copies of the final report as well as .pdf versions and copies of the CCP GHG software files.
