| Description: |
On September 22, 2009, the EPA issued its final rule on the mandatory reporting of greenhouse gases (GHG).
The largest emitters, who roughly contribute 85 percent of the total U.S. GHG emissions, need to start collecting data January 1, 2010 for final reporting to the EPA by March 31, 2011. This new rule will affect roughly 10,000 facilities in the U.S.
Failure to report, or incorrect reporting, may result in criminal penalties, injunctions, and civil and administrative penalties of up to $37,500 per day per violation.

| About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts: |
Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.
The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form a training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!
And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.
Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions. |
