This page provides an overview of the Subpart W local distribution companies source category reporting requirements.

The local distribution companies source category is applicable to Natural Gas Distribution segment.

If the facility has the source type, the Best Available Monitoring Methods and Missing Data table must be completed.

• For further information, see Best Available Monitoring Methods and Missing Data Reporting.

Reporting Requirements

Note: If you do not have a specific type of metering-regulating station, transmission-distribution station, distribution main, or distribution service, enter zero for the applicable data element(s), do not leave the fields blank.

Total Emissions

The total emissions roll-up at the top of the sheet reflects the sum of the CO₂ equivalents of each gas emission reported for the source type.  These summations are reflected and aggregated on the Introduction tab.
