2002 Ozone Season Comes to a Close
Along with fall’s arrival this past weekend, the 2002 ozone
season comes to a close on September 30, 2002. NOx Budget sources
must now “true up”: make sure that compliance account
balances have sufficient allowances to cover 2002 actual ozone season
emissions. Sources must also provide their third quarter emissions
data (“quarterly report”), and complete the 2002 compliance
report by December 31, 2002. Please make note of the fact
that next year’s (2003) compliance report will be due before
the end of the year: Specifically, November 30, 2002.
Connecticut Sources Begin New Program Connecticut
has decided that its sources must comply with the NOx Budget requirements
on an annual basis. As a result, October1, 2002 will mark the beginning
of the first nonozone season during which Connecticut Budget sources
will begin counting their nonozone season NOx emissions for compliance
purposes. SO2 Set to Rise??
SO2 has remained range-bound this month, although a rumor ran through
the market suggesting that prices will rise. Specifically, it is
rumored that a previous seller of several hundred thousand tons
of SO2 may have to buy back some tons. This question is to be resolved
as a matter of law, and the parties remain uncertain of the outcome.
We will endeavor to keep you updated regarding whether any such
event(s) begin to take shape.
Cantor Daily Price Sheets Cantor
Fitzgerald has this month undertaken to provide daily updates on
all trades in the NOx and SO2 allowance markets. We have been providing
these daily price sheets by email. If you would like to receive
Daily sheets at no charge to you, please do not hesitate to ask.
