Reporting programme 2010
Parties are required to report on the substancies and for the years set forth in protocols that they have ratified and that have entered into force. Information on base years and years of ratification for each Party to the Convention is regularly updated by the UNECE secretariat and provided as Annex II ( 
Part 1 and Part 2) of reporting Guidelines.
Emission data should be submitted to the CEIP at Umweltbundesamt Wien by 15 February 2010. IIRs should be provided no later than 15 March 2010.
Please submit your 2008 data, any necessary time-series data or revisions to previous data and the IIRs, in accordance with the revised Guidelines for Reporting Emission Data under the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution ( ECE/EB.AIR/97). The Annexes I-VII to the Guidelines provide additional information and reporting templates.
In tables below you will find a summary of the reporting requirements set up by TFEIP/UNECE Guidelines for Estimatig and reporting Emission data under CLRTAP.

IMPORTANT CHANGES TO REPORTING TEMPLATES
At the recent EMEP Steering Body Meeting some minor changes to the reporting templates were agreed. Revised templates are to be used for the reporting of NEC Directive data (Dec 2009) and LRTAP data (Feb 2010). The latest changes are specifically due to a) the need to reflect the future anticipated changes for reporting of POPs as an outcome of the revision of the CLRTAP POPs protocol (the revised protocol is anticipated to be formally agreed in December 2009) and b) correction of various small errors and inconsistencies in the previous templates.
POPs (Annex IV Table 1)
Several of the POPs have been removed from the annex of the POPs protocol and thus do not need to be reported in 2010. The POPs which are in the templates and need to be reported are:
- PAHs (Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons). There are 4 as previously- benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, indeno (1,2,3-cd) pyrene
- PCDD/F (Dioxins/Furans)
- HCB (Hexachlorobenzene)
the following two POPs are included as voluntary reporting:
- PCB’s (Polychlorinated biphenyls)
- HCH (Hexachlorocyclohexane)
Changes to Source Categories (Annex IV Table1)
- “Fugitive emissions from geothermal energy production, peat and other energy extraction” has been moved from 1B2avi to a new source category 1B3.
- 1A5a is now included in the GNFR C_SmallComb.
- Footnote h) regarding fuel used, has been modified.
- The row with SNAP totals has been deleted.
- The order of categories has been changed so all are now in numerical order.
Changes to Other Tables
- GNFR for Cruise and LTO has been revised (for Annex IV Tables 1, 3A and 3B)
- The Extensions sheet has been deleted
- The tables in the “Additional Information” sheet have been renumbered
- Some small changes to the format definition of flat text files has occurred to remove inconsistencies in the previous version
- Additional tables for reporting of WaM projections and activities
History
The draft revised Guidelines as amended by the Working Group on Strategies and Review (ECE/EB.AIR/2008/4) have been submitted to the Executive Body at its twenty-sixth session (in December 2008) for adoption and for use by Parties as a basis for their reporting starting from 2009.
The reporting Guidelines and reporting formats have been amended in January after 26th session of EB meeting. The current Guidelines ( ECE/AB.AIR/97) are also available in French and Russian.

IMPORTANT ! Reporting templates have been revised! For reporting of emissions and projections Parties should solely use latest version of templates "NFR09" (dated 30.9.2009) posted on the CEIP website.
