2 SECTION A. General project activity information A.1 Title of the project activity A.2. Gold Standard registration GS Project ID: GS440 Validation date: 21 April 2009 (Provision of the final validation report) Registration date: 27 April 2009 A.3. Short description of the project activity At greenhouse gases are reduced by capturing of the powerful greenhouse gas methane and by producing renewable energy. This involves the extraction of landfill gas (LFG) at the Mamak landfill site in Ankara. The landfill gas (LFG) is captured and utilised in engines for the production of electricity. The proposed project activity involves: covering of the landfill area a gas extraction system which can support app MW gas engines for electricity generation gas engines (utilization of the recovered LFG) a flaring system a leachate drainage system Additionally the generation of greenhouse gases will be reduced by avoiding waste to be deposited and thus avoiding the generation of the powerful greenhouse gas methane. Therefore an anaerobic digester and a gasifier are currently being constructed where biogas for the production of electricity will be generated but have not been operating in the period covered by this report. A.4. Monitoring period Monitoring period covered by this report: 01/05/ /03/2008 (both days are included) 01/04/ /03/2009 (both days are included) A.5. Scope of this monitoring report This report covers the monitoring period from 01/05/ /03/2008 and 01/04/ /03/2009. As already mentioned above during the period covered by this monitoring report neither the anaerobic digester nor the gasifier were operating. This also is described in the PDD and does not mean a deviation. Mainly this leads to a simplification of the monitoring and also to a simplification of this report: The monitoring parameters ID 32 ID 45 and ID 47 do not have to be discussed in this report. Approved baseline and monitoring methodology AM0025 Avoided emissions from organic waste through alternative waste treatment process Version 10, EB35, does not have to be discussed in this report. Tool to determine methane emissions avoided from disposal of waste at a solid waste disposal site" Version 04, EB41, does not have to be discussed in this report. Date: Page 2 of 29 Version: 1.2

22 Section E. Open issues from validation In the Validation report (PORT NO GS, 21 April 2009) the following FAR is stated: Forward Action Request #1: Detailed data, monitoring and QA/QC procedures are needed after installation of the anaerobic digester system. Since the anaerobic digester has not started operation in the period covered by this report, final data, monitoring and QA/QC procedures are not discussed in this report but will be discussed in the monitoring report covering the 2nd periodic verification provided that the anaerobic digester has started operation by then.

23 Section F. Gold Standard monitoring parameters According to the requirements of the Gold Standard, the project activity must use at least 65 % of the LFG for electricity generation. Additionally the GS requires that the project activity is assessed against a matrix of sustainable development indicators. The contribution of the proposed project activity to the sustainable development of the country is based on indicators of local/global environmental sustainability, social sustainability & development and economic & technological development. Below the specific parameters are discussed: ID 50/ LFG usage Description: The Gold Standard requires that at least 65% or LFG is used for electricity generation. The percentage of LFG used for the generation of electricity is calculated by dividing the amount of landfill gas used in engines by the total amount of landfill gas captured. Period Total amount of Landfill gas captured (Nm 3 LFG) Total amount of Landfill gas destroyed in engines (Nm 3 LFG) Fraction of LFG used for the generation of electricity 01 May Mar 08 26,316, ,308, % 01 Apr Mar 09 45,843, ,768, % Thus the project meets the Gold Standard criterion. SDI.1 / Water Quality Description: One of the main sources of pollution from landfills is the uncontrolled drainage of leachate (baseline situation). With the implementation of the project activity the leachate will be collected. The collection of the leachate may be demonstrated to the DOE by official documents or other proofs which are available. The leachate is collected and transferred to the ASKI water treatment plant. Official documents are presented during the on-site visit. Additionally the leachate collection system may be observed by the DOE during the on-site visit. For illustrative reasoning and for showing the progress achieved in each specific period the following information is presented: Period Meters of installed drainage pipes 01 May Mar 08 app. 22, Apr Mar 09 app. 22,250 SDI.2 / Air Quality Description: Landfills generally are sources for odours which for a large share can be attributed to the release of H 2 S. There is the general scientific understanding that it is not possible to directly measure odours in an objective way. Thus it was decided to define sulphides as a key parameter representing odour. Between 0-1% of volume of the landfill gas is known to contain sulphides. The avoidance of odours works very efficiently. The amount of destroyed sulphides for the period covered by this monitoring report is calculated according to the approach presented in the PDD as Date: Page 23 of 29 Version: 1.2

24 follows: V sulphide destroyed=v LFG destroyed * 0.005, where V represents the volume in Nm 3. A conservative approach of 0.5% is set for the sulphide content. Amount of sulphides destroyed: Period Amount of LFG destroyed Amount of sulphides destroyed (Nm 3 ) (Nm 3 ) 01 May Mar 08 25,984, , Apr Mar 09 45,823, , Additionally the DOE could experience the current odour situation during the on-site visit. SDI.4 / Soil Condition Description: One of the main mechanisms for soil contamination due to landfill activities is the uncontrolled drainage of leachate. As leachate will be collected and transferred to the treatment plant the contamination of the soil layers beneath the landfill will be reduced significantly. Another mechanism for soil degradation is erosion. By terracing erosion will be reduced. The monitoring of the drainage system is already covered by the parameter SDI.1 / Water Quality. Terracing is shown to the DOE during the on site visit. Progress is also documented by photos from earlier stages. For illustrative reasoning and for showing the progress achieved in each specific period the following information is presented: Period Approximate area at the landfill which is terraced additionally 01 May Mar 08 app. 50,000 m² 01 Apr Mar 09 app. 61,600 m² SDI.6 / Employment (job quality) Description: Trainings are crucial for the professional development of employees. The number of trainings and attendance of employees will be monitored. Training and attendance certificates are available to the DOE during the on-site visit.

SDI.7/ Livelihood of the poor Description: The project activity created a large number of formalized jobs. This is especially important taking into account that many of the current employees did not have access to social security before working at Mamak landfill. A list of employees who did not have access to social security is available for the on-site visit. Additionally the DOE may interview employees during the on-site visit. Period Number of people employed by ITC with access to social security in specific period who did not have social security before working at ITC 01 May Mar Apr Mar Date: Page 25 of 29 Version: 1.2

26 SDI.9 / Human and institutional capacity Description: For a holistic waste treatment system a proper waste management plan is necessary. Optimally this includes both recycling but also avoidance of waste and thus raising awareness. Campaigns will be documented as e.g. areas where such campaigns took place and how citizens were approached and what type of information was accessible to them. Raising awareness is a key element for improved waste treatment. The approach chosen by the project owner includes both the delivery of information material but also door-to-door education and school education. The documentation of the awareness campaign is available for the DOE during the on-site visit. For illustrative reasoning and for showing the progress achieved in each specific period the following information is presented: Period Number of households contacted with awareness campaign 01 May Mar 08 app. 55, Apr Mar 09 app. 59,593 (18,534 households were reinformed) On the following pages photos showing the implementation of the waste management plan are presented.
