LCFS - Legacy Schedule D (GHGenius schedule in TFRS)

Task Description

The task of rebuilding Legacy reports with a Schedule D attachment in the LCFS Portal is a crucial step in ensuring compliance with the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) regulations. Currently, Schedule D was built using the TFRS (Transportation Fuels Regulatory System) framework, which has specific requirements for reporting carbon intensity. To facilitate a seamless transition to the LCFS Portal, it is essential to replicate the existing Schedule D functionality.

Legacy Schedule D in TFRS

In the TFRS framework, Schedule D was built with a specific configuration that allowed for supplemental reporting with GHGenius inputs. This configuration included a determining carbon intensity option, which was set to "Determining CI option-Section 6 (5) (d) (ii) (A) - GHGenius modelled." Additionally, the RCI (Revised Carbon Intensity) field was open for user input, enabling users to enter their own values. Furthermore, users were able to upload a schedule D template to this report, ensuring consistency with prior years of schedule D used.

Rebuilding Schedule D in LCFS Portal

To rebuild Schedule D in the LCFS Portal, the following requirements must be met:

Supplemental Reporting with GHGenius Inputs: The LCFS Portal should allow for supplemental reporting with GHGenius inputs, including the determining carbon intensity option "Determining CI option-Section 6 (5) (d) (ii) (A) - GHGenius modelled." This option should be available for users to select, enabling them to choose the GHGenius modelled carbon intensity option.
Open RCI Field: The RCI field should be open for user input, allowing users to enter their own values for carbon intensity.
Upload Schedule D Template: Users should be able to upload a schedule D template to this report, ensuring consistency with prior years of schedule D used.

Purpose of the Task

The purpose of this task is to ensure that Legacy reports with a Schedule D attachment can be rebuilt in the LCFS Portal, maintaining consistency with prior years of schedule D used. This is crucial for compliance with the LCFS regulations, which require accurate and consistent reporting of carbon intensity.

Acceptance Criteria

To ensure that the task is completed successfully, the following acceptance criteria must be met:

[ ] The LCFS Portal allows for supplemental reporting with GHGenius inputs, including the determining carbon intensity option "Determining CI option-Section 6 (5) (d) (ii) (A) - GHGenius modelled."
[ ] The RCI field is open for user input, allowing users to enter their own values for carbon intensity.
[ ] Users can upload a schedule D template to this report, ensuring consistency with prior years of schedule D used.

Additional Context

To facilitate a seamless transition to the LCFS Portal, it is essential to provide a template for the previous schedule D to be uploaded. This template should be consistent with prior years of schedule D used, ensuring that users can easily upload their existing data. Additionally, users should be able to select the GHGenius modelled carbon intensity option, enabling them to choose the most accurate option for their reporting needs.

Benefits of the Task

The benefits of this task include:

Ensuring compliance with the LCFS regulations
Maintaining consistency with prior years of schedule D used
Facilitating a seamless transition to the LCFS Portal
Enabling users to select the most accurate carbon intensity option for their reporting needs

By rebuilding Schedule D in the LCFS Portal, users can ensure that their reporting is accurate and consistent, while also meeting the requirements of the LCFS regulations.
