Post title: PRTR Experst for the identification of methodologies and estimation techniques for diffuse emissions and conducting the sector-based training - for the following key sectors
According to Art 28 of draft PRTR regulation RM
- non-authorized landfills in accordance with the Law on Waste nr. 209 of 29 July 2016;
- b) emissions from transport;
- c) agricultural activities (use of pesticides and fertilizers);
- d) surface-farms and non-organized waste water disposal.
Duration: 3-4 months
Starting date: April 2018
Duty station: Chisinau, Moldova
Counterpart: Ministry of Agriculture, Regional Development and Environment of Moldova
Background information
Diffuse sources, according to Article 28 of Law on Waste nr. 209 from 29 July 2016, 28, are emissions released into ambient air from sources of airborne pollutants such as fugitive emission sources, natural sources of emissions and other sources not specifically defined.
For releases of pollutants into air diffuse sources cover the sectors transportation (road transport, navigation and air traffic), agriculture and households. For pollutant releases into water the sectors include atmospheric deposition, agriculture and urban areas. For each sector the most important pollutants are taken into account. For example, methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and ammonia (NH3) are of utmost importance in the agricultural sector. Pollutants from the transportation sector include carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), particulate matter (PM10) and nitrogen oxides (NOx/NO2).
It is expected that the experts for the identification of emission data sources shall examine the following:
-CLRTAP national totals for NO x, SO 2, CO, PM10 and NH 3
- UNFCCC national totals for CO 2
- E-PRTR data set
Duties:
For each sector defined, it is expected that National PRTR experts shall provide the following:
Task 1 Analyze the identified methodologies, and in particular the following aspects thereof:
o coverage and description of the sector (e.g. top down/bottom up, level of aggregation);
o need for particular input data (activity data, emission factors, etc.)
o estimated degree (in terms of completeness, quality, level of detail) of availability of such data (or how to generate it);
o the process used or needed for its collection.
o availability of appropriate input data and efforts needed to obtain it;
o achievable level of accuracy;
o the need for adaptation or modification of existing methodologies;
o flexibility for use across sectors, tackling air and water pollutants, etc.;
o potential gaps and inconsistencies.
Task 2 Identification of estimation methodologies applied for diffuse sources.
o coverage and description of the sector (e.g. top down/bottom up, level of aggregation);
o need for particular input data (activity data, emission factors, etc.)
o estimated degree (in terms of completeness, quality, level of detail) of availability of such data (or how to generate it);
o the process used or needed for its collection.
o availability of appropriate input data and efforts needed to obtain it;
o achievable level of accuracy;
o the need for adaptation or modification of existing methodologies;
o flexibility for use across sectors, tackling air and water pollutants, etc.;
o potential gaps and inconsistencies.
Task 3 – Provide support and feedbacks to develop the online reporting tool
- Support IT to develop an online reporting tool that will be used by operators to report data into the PRTR database. The online reporting format will be structured following the feedback of the PRTR expert.
Task 4 – Provide support to develop National Guidelines on Estimation Techniques
- The PRTR experts will work jointly to compile the methodologies identified for the relevant sectors to develop National Guidelines on Estimation Techniques.
Task 5 - conducting the sector-based trainings on application of the methodologies and estimation techniques for diffuse emission
Each National PRTR expert will liaise with EPPO project team and other relevant organizations and entitled working on PRTRs or similar initiatives. In general, it is expected that all experts shall do the minimum of the following tasks:
- To prepare the training outline, presentations and handout materials for the respective sector;
- To define the final list of participants of the trainings and to interact with them while reviewing and processing the annual report forms based on proposed methodologies and excel calculation sheets
- To participate in training reporting and evaluation
- To improve/ correct/ modify the methodological approach and explanations for the respective sectors based on the training outcomes, which will be used for defining the on-line reporting tool.
Duration of Employment
The consultant output for the proposed assignment is expected to be executed within the 3-4 months period, starting with April 2018. The expected workload is estimated to 5-8 working days/month.
Requirements
National PRTR Experts for the identification of methodologies and estimation techniques for diffuse emissions and conducting the sector-based trainings shall have the following expertise and competencies:
• University degree in the field of sector expertise.
• Proven experience in the field of expertise, including development of the similar tasks
• Knowledge of representatives of the target sector
• Excellent proficiency in Romanian and English
• Good analytical and writing skills
Interested candidates must submit the CV in English along with the motivation letter and financial offer including daily fee before April 24, 2018 to the address: info@eppo.md
