This report summarizes the process and work completed to develop and successfully submit an MRV plan to EPA. This work used the lessons learned from various MRCSP tasks to demonstrate the geologic understanding of the Niagaran reefs, successful monitoring and accounting methodologies, understanding of potential risks and leakage pathways, and mass balance of CO2 baseline and net storage. The plan currently encompasses 10 reefs and also provides a reporting plan for future reef development.

NNSA uses NNSA Policies (NAPs) and Supplemental Directives (SDs) as its primary means to establish, communicate, and institutionalize policies, requirements, responsibilities, and procedures specific to NNSA elements and contractors. NAPs impart policy and requirements unique to the Administration or provide short-term notices until more formal direction can be provided. SDs are utilized, in conjunction with the Department's Directives System to indicate how NNSA will implement a Departmental directive in a cost efficient manner.
