enhancements of removals for the project over its crediting period as described in 1(b) above<br />

shall be paid as an advance payment when a determination report regarding the PDD is<br />

submitted to the secretariat in accordance with paragraph 34 of the JI guidelines.<br />

(b) The advance payment shall be deducted from the fee for processing the first verification<br />

report on the same project submitted to the secretariat in accordance with paragraph 38 of<br />

the JI guidelines.<br />

(c) If a verification report is not submitted, the advance payment above USD 30,000 shall be<br />

reimbursed.<br />

(d) No advance payment shall be paid for projects with an expected average annual generation<br />

of emission reductions or enhancements of removals over the crediting period below 15,000<br />

tCO 2 equivalent.<br />

(e) Maximum fee payable as advance payment shall be USD 350,000.<br />

To incorporate preferential treatment of JI small scale projects regarding advanced payments on the<br />

fee for the processing of verification reports, the JISC revised the fee structure at its eight meeting<br />

and agreed to submit the revised fee structure [JISC08, Annex 9] to the CMP3 for endorsement, after<br />

which time it would enter into force [JISC08, para. 32].<br />

4.3. JI-PDD and guidelines<br />

4.3.1. JI-PDD format<br />

The JISC has agreed on the draft JI-PDD form version 01 (in effect as of 15 June 2006) [JISC03,<br />

Annex 1], similar to version 02 12 of the CDM-PDD form, and the guidelines for users of the JI-PDD<br />

form [JISC03, Annex 2]. Later on, the COP/MOP2 adopts the JI-PDD form in accordance with the JI<br />

guidelines [Decision 2/CMP.2, Para 3]. As shown in Table 4-2, the contents of JI-PDD and CDM-<br />

PDD version 02 are quite similar. The JI-PDD form and the guidelines for users of the JI-PDD form<br />

are available on: http://ji.unfccc.int/Ref/Docs.html. Work for the preparation of revised JI-PDD form<br />

including guidelines for users is in progress and are to be discussed at JISC13 [JISC12, paras. 12-14].<br />

Projects with written approvals from Parties of the JI guidelines dated before 15 June 2006 shall<br />

use either the JI-PDD form or the CDM-PDD forms. In the latter case, the AIE selected by the project<br />

participants to perform the determination shall confirm that the PDD submitted provides all the<br />

information covered by the JI-PDD form and related JISC guidance [JISC03, para. 8].<br />
