... 37 C h a p t e r 4 This chapter presents guidance on comparing the different tracking mechanisms for alternative jet fuel. In addition, it includes factors to consider when choosing the right tracking mechanism according to local conditions and particular circumstances associated with the procurement of alternative jet fuel.

... 38 Tracking Alternative Jet Fuel RCQs/COAs, invoices, BOLs, and fuel delivery tickets are fairly routine requirements for commerce in any fuels. Blend tickets, required for alternative jet fuel delivery for use in aircraft, only require fairly routine, readily available data.

... 40 tracking alternative Jet Fuel 4.2.1 Physical Segregation • Overview: This mechanism requires dedicated infrastructure for alternative fuel storage and handling between the production facility and the wing of the aircraft. It allows for the tracking of alternative jet fuel molecules all the way to the wing of the aircraft.

... Comparing the requirements of the Different Mechanisms for tracking alternative Jet Fuel 41 4.2.3 Book-and-Claim • Overview: In this mechanism, the sustainability information associated with a physical volume of alternative fuel is allowed to be separated from the fuel as it travels along the supply chain. This mechanism uses common fuel storage and delivery infrastructure for both the conventional and alternative fuels that have been properly blended and certified to the relevant quality standards.
