Gas plant operators (subtypes 401, 402, 403, 404, and 405) may receive Sulphur Balance missing or imbalance errors and/or notifications. S-30 reporting is only required where the licensed sulphur inlet rate exceeds 1 tonne/day for the applicable production month. For plants with a rate of 1 tonne/day or less, the SBR 100 – Sulphur submission is missing error can be ignored. Beginning next month, notifications will only be issued for gas plants required to submit S-30 reports.
