Computing criteria air emissions are more complicated than GHG emissions because of <br />their dependence on technology. If Orange County is interested in this option, IES will <br />collect and document the additional activity data, emission factors, and assumptions <br />required to report the emissions. IES, where possible, will use the new Clean Air and <br />Climate Protection Software (CACPS), an upgraded version of the CCP GHG software. <br />This new tool, developed by ICLEI and STAPPA/ALAPCO with funding from EPA, was <br />demonstrated in August 2003 at EPA RTP campus, <br />Adding the CAP Analysis onto this project would involve an additional fee of $15,000 <br />USD. <br />The total project cost with the addition of CAP analysis would be $55,000 USD. <br />The project timeline would be expanded by approximately one month to account for the <br />additional data collection and analysis requirements. <br />9.3 Timeline & Proposed Schedule <br />ICLEI Energy Services (IES) is prepared to begin this work as early as February 2004. It <br />is anticipated that the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory and Reduction Plan would <br />take 4 months to complete with a February start , CAP analysis would extend the timeline <br />by an additional month. Attached is a proposed Gantt Chart outlining the proposed <br />project schedule and associated key tasks. If IES is hired to undertake this project, the <br />schedule will be reviewed, adjusted to incorporate accepted starting time, scope of work <br />(CAP option) and submitted to the Working Group and Advisory Group approval and <br />acceptance. <br />14 <br />
