Extension Process

In the event that an institution will be unable to meet the GHG Report or Climate Action Plan reporting deadlines despite its best efforts, a request for an extension may be submitted. Extensions are not granted for Implementation Profiles and Progress Reports. The maximum length of an extension is four months, and only one extension can be granted per report.

Signatories should apply for an extension as soon as they become aware that they will be unable to fulfill their commitments under the ACUPCC. Until an extension is granted, an institution whose report is overdue will be listed as late on the reporting page of the website. It may take several days before an institution is notified of the extension decision so signatories are encouraged to apply well before the deadline.

How to apply

Login to the ACUPCC Reporting System. Once logged in, you will see a heading for “Request an Extension.” Fill out the online form and click “Request Extension.”
