Q130. I have space which I own, but lease to a third party within my "facility" and the tenant pays the utilities, do I have to include that building space?
Note: The Cal e-GGRT help system includes general instruction on using the California GHG reporting tool. However, the help system may not explain differences between California and U.S. EPA reporting requirements. Please refer to the ARB reporting website for California-specific reporting requirements and additional help.

It depends on who owns and operates the emitting equipment.

  • If you own the equipment (e.g., furnaces, hot water heaters, incinerators), then you must include the equipment in your report. Even if the tenant pays the fuel bills, you must report the emissions.
  • If the tenant leases space and installs and operates emitting equipment, then the equipment is not part of your facility.
