5. 5 Now on to substance First issue – Fund related work First issue – Fund related work

6. Terms of Reference for 2012-2014 Replenishment of the Multilateral Fund In year before replenishment, parties prepare TOR for a TEAP study on funds needed for next 3 years OEWG progressed on consensus Terms of Reference for TEAP replenishment study (doc. 22/3 – Decision XXI/[D]) At OEWG, the only outstanding issues appeared to be whether the TEAP should be asked to: (a) provide indicative figures for $$ that would be needed for A5 parties to comply with the HFC amendment proposals AND/OR whether they should be asked to (b) provide indicative figures for additional $$ to promote HCFC alternatives with low GWP taking account of H&S

7. 7 Terms of reference for an evaluation of the Financial Mechanism 22 nd MOP agreed to undertake a future evaluation of the financial mechanism - OEWG made considerable progress on terms of reference – doc. 21/3 decision XXII/C Main outstanding issues - Number [6] and designation of who will be on a steering panel and cost of study - Number [6] and designation of who will be on a steering panel and cost of study - whether to request the study to address: - whether to request the study to address: (a) the (a) the [Total reductions [and introduction of] greenhouse gases in CO2eqs resulting from MLF activities and production capacity installed]; (b) (b) [Comparison of approved incremental costs and actual [incremental] costs (c) [ID of incidental impacts of MLF activities, not directly related to ODS [or GHG] (d) [Comparison of env impacts of substitutes and alternatives funded by MLF per XIX/6;] (e) Adequacy and effectiveness of [the division of labor between] the Excom, Secretariat, evaluation function, Treasurer and the IAs and bilateral agencies;

8. 8 Proposed Assessment of HCFC Guidelines Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Uruguay and Venezuela proposed to request TEAP to assess and submit to the OEWG a report on: Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Uruguay and Venezuela proposed to request TEAP to assess and submit to the OEWG a report on: - The extent to which the HCFC funding guidelines would allow A5s to use low GWP alternatives - The extent to which the HCFC funding guidelines would allow A5s to use low GWP alternatives - Quantities and types of HFCs and applications where HFCs are likely to be phased in as HCFC alternatives due to lack of low GWP alternatives or insufficient funding - Quantities and types of HFCs and applications where HFCs are likely to be phased in as HCFC alternatives due to lack of low GWP alternatives or insufficient funding This proposal was to be initially discussed in the replenishment contact group

9. 9 Proposal by India on affirming the status of HCFCs preblended in polyol India proposed to have the Meeting of the Parties: - affirm that HCFCs preblended in polyol are to be defined as a controlled substance, and subjected to the phaseout, - affirm that related consumption should be eligible for MLF funding - urge parties to report production, consumption and exports of HCFCs preblended in polyols from 2009, and earlier if possible, and requests the Secretariat to adjust reporting formats accordingly Subsequent to the OEWG – Excom took a decision to fund phaseout of HCFCs preblended in polyol without changing historic status; given this, its unclear whether this proposal will be withdrawn

10. 10 Issue II: Four Proposals on ODS Destruction Australia: Analyze MBR destruction technologies and add to the list of approved technologies if appropriate Nigeria: TEAP to develop criteria for handling and destruction of ODS at relevant facilities and deciding what technology to use, and update list of approved technologies EC: encourage addressing banks through GEF synergies, pursuit of schemes where importers or producers take responsibility for disposal; request TEAP to update list of approved technologies and to report on MLF and GEF experience; and explore additional options Mauritius: request DTIE to study and present to the regions and the OEWG a report on ODS banks in LVCs with a view to ensuring destruction with optimized cost/benefit and aggregating small quantities to facilitate effective destruction

12. 12 Proposal on Destruction of HFC 23 byproduct emissions of HCFC 22 - Update info on HCFC 22 production facilities - Update info on HCFC 22 production facilities for next years OEWG for next years OEWG - Estimate incremental cost of collection/ - Estimate incremental cost of collection/ destruction of HFC23 by product emissions destruction of HFC23 by product emissions - Urgently facilitate the formulation and - Urgently facilitate the formulation and implementation of projects to eliminate implementation of projects to eliminate emissions for lines not getting CDM credit emissions for lines not getting CDM credit - Request TEAP study costs on a facility or - Request TEAP study costs on a facility or production line basis for OEWG production line basis for OEWG

13. 13 Some key points of proposal by Canada, Mexico and the United States of America Non-A5 Parties freeze HFC production/consumption in [2014] at 2004-2006 levels of HFCs plus HCFCs, and reduce [20%] in 2017, [30%] in 2020, [50%] in [2025], [70%] in [2029], and, 85% in [2033], with 10% production allowance for basic domestic needs. A5 Parties would have a grace period from dates above. MLF to cover HFCs. Strictly limits HFC byproduct emissions from HCFC 22 production by 2014 Estimated to result in reduction of 3100 MMT CO2eq through 2020 and around 88000 mmtCO2eq through 2050
