Adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions:
Performance year Baseline year
Adjusted net GHG emissions 6,379.75 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 19,013 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or three-year periods):
Performance year Baseline year
Start date July 1, 2020 July 1, 2012
End date June 30, 2021 June 30, 2013

A brief description of when and why the GHG emissions baseline was adopted:

2013 was established as the greenhouse gas emissions baseline because this the most recent year that we have both electricity, natural gas, oil, and gasoline data to draw upon.
