Any documents required by the Consent Decree for submission, and/or review and approval may be submitted through CDRS.   Such documents may include e.g.:  periodic reporting, test/set plans for emission limit setting, mitigation plans, and force majeure notices.

CBI should not be uploaded. Instead, you should send documents directly by mail to the contacts listed on the consent decree.

Yes, state co-plaintiffs will have access to CDRS

Documents in any form may be uploaded, e.g Word, Word Perfect, Excel, PDF. Each document uploaded must include a heading with title of the document, date of the document, and corresponding section of the Consent Decree that the reporting satisfies.

CEDRI is accessed through the Central Data Exchange (CDX) (https://cdx.epa.gov), which is the EPAs CROMERR compliance system for collecting and distributing environmental data.

Registering as a Certifier

Registering as a Preparer

For users registering under the Preparer role, no identity proofing is required, and registration can take less than 3 minutes. For users who are registering as a Certifier, additional identity proofing is required. As a Certifier, you will be prompted to follow the registration steps that support the LexisNexis identity verification or Electronic Signature Agreement (ESA) signing process. The ESA process requires you to send a paper form to the EPA, and it can take up to 2 weeks to complete the registration process. If you are an existing CDX user, you can request to add the CEDRI program service to your existing CDX account from `Active Program Services List¿. Please note that your ESA must be processed before your role as a CEDRI Certifier is activated within CDX.

See relevant job aide(s) below:

Registering as a Certifier

Registering as a Preparer

CEDRI Role Sponsorship

CROMERR regulations require you to prove your identity while registering as a user in CDX. CDX uses a third-party provider, LexisNexis, to provide identity proofing by collecting PII information. ESA signing process is an extension of LexisNexis. The ESA document in itself is the legally binding agreement that allows you to declare your true identity.

If you pass the LexisNexis process while verifying your identity, then you can sign the ESA instantly and electronically online. If LexisNexis is unable to verify your information, you would have to print the ESA, sign it manually and send it to EPA. It can take up to 2 weeks for the paper processing to complete and to have the user role activated in CDX.

Please note that your ESA must be processed before your role as a CEDRI Certifier is activated within CDX.

• Preparer: The Preparer is the person responsible for the preparation of reports for signature. Contractors are permitted to register as a Preparer and may assemble reports, such as files generated by the Emission Reporting Tool (ERT), for the Certifier's approval and signature. A Preparer may not sign and submit a report. 
• Certifier: The Certifier is the duly authorized representative of the source/facility or more commonly referred to as the owner or operator of the facility. The Certifier is authorized to modify the report that a Preparer has assembled, and sign and submit the report to CDX. The Certifier may perform all the tasks the Preparer may perform, but also has submission signing authority. Contractors are prohibited from registering as a Certifier.

CDX allows CEDRI Certifiers, as a representative of a reporting organization, to authorize another user to modify, sign, and submit reports to CDX for the organization, known as a Delegated Certifier. The Delegated Certifier is authorized to perform the same tasks as the Certifier (i.e. create and submit reports). However, a Delegated Certifier may not delegate their role to another representative. Registration for this role cannot be requested by a user but rather initiated by a Certifier through the CDX role sponsorship function. Only CEDRI Certifiers can initiate the role sponsorship process. 

Contractors are prohibited from being appointed as a Delegated Certifier.

Industry users may add or remove facilities from your CDX account at any time through the Manage Program Services tab on the My CDX page. Select the Manage Facilities link associated with your CEDRI role. You may then add a new facility, or select the Remove link associated with the facility to remove the selected facility from your CDX account. If you would like to edit an existing facility, you must select the Details link associated with the facility. A window will open displaying facility details. Select the Edit Facility button to modify the facility name and facility address.

Finally, you can add, remove, and edit your facility information from the My CEDRI dashboard. To do so, simply click the My Facilities button on the My CEDRI dashboard. Doing so will bring you to the section of the page containing your facility data. From here, you can add a facility by navigating to the Add Facility tab, and you can edit and remove facilities from the main My Facilities tab.

See relevant job aide(s) below:

Manage Facilities Job Aide

You must be associated to the facility for which the report was submitted under. Specifically, the EPA FRS Registry ID associated with the report must match one of the facilities listed in My Facilities section on your CEDRI Dashboard.

The most likely reason for not being able to see a submission is that the Certifier does not have the same facility in his/her My Facilities section that the Preparer has for the submission. 

The best way to ensure that the facility is the same is with the 12 digit EPA FRS Registry ID. The Preparer should access the submission of interest, click the Facility tab, record the value contained in the FRS Registry ID field tab, and provide it to the Certifier. 

The Certifier should then follow the steps in the Adding Facilities section of the Managing your CEDRI Facilities job aide, to add that facility to his/her My Facilities section. 

You must be a Preparer associated to the report. Meaning you created the report or you were given access to the report in Step 4 of the create a report workflow by a Certifier or the report creator (can be another preparer), before the report was submitted.

In order for a Preparer to view a report submission created by a Certifier for a specific facility, the following two conditions need to be met:

·        The Certifier must assign the Preparer to the specific report, which occurs during submission.

·        The Preparer must have the specific facility added to his/her My Facilities section.

To ensure the Preparer is assigned to the report at time of submission, the Certifier should update the list of Preparer(s) in Step 4 of the create a report workflow. Once you select a facility to associate the report to, click Add/Remove Preparers and assign a Preparer(s) to the submission by clicking the appropriate checkbox and clicking Save. If the Preparer's name is not in the list, this means the Preparer is not associated to this facility. They will need to add this facility to their My Facilities section.

To make sure the Preparer adds the appropriate facility that is associated with the report, the Certifier should record the value contained in the EPA Registry ID field and give this value to the Preparer. The Preparer should then follow the steps in the Adding Facilities section of the  Managing your CEDRI Facilities job aide, to add the facility to their My Facilities.

Once the conditions are successfully met, the Preparer should be able to see the submission created by the Certifier in CEDRI History.

There may be multiple reasons why you cannot submit your ERT file, but following the steps listed below will likely resolve the issue:

• Make sure you are using the most current version of the ERT to create your submission report. You can download the most recent version of the ERT here..
• Make sure the file generated by the ERT is a zip file that contains both an xml and another zip file (which contains an accdb file). If you do not receive a FINISHED Submission File Created message, the ERT submission report was not created.
• Make sure that your facility information in the Test Plan contains a valid State Code.
• Make sure that your submission report is a complete Test Report and not just a Test Plan. Only completed Test Reports should be submitted through CEDRI.

When a report is pushed back by a State or EPA Regional Reviewer, the Certifier who submitted the report receives a notification to the email address on record with CDX. The email contains reviewer comments regarding the pushed back report, as well as a Report Name link that takes you directly to the Upload Documents step where you can upload the revised report.

The pushed back report will also be available on your MyCEDRI Dashboard in the Reports Under Development list with a status of Resubmission Under Development (Step 2).

When you revise and resubmit the report, the original report will be replaced in CEDRI and WebFIRE by the revised report.

For additional information please refer to the Revising and Resubmitting Report Job Aide job aide.

Facilities subject to a state, local or tribal title V program approved under Part 70, the federal title V program under Part 71, or the federal tribal minor NSR under Part 49 can submit any reports, notifications, or applications with certification by a responsible official.

Regulated facilities should check with their EPA Region or local permitting authority to see if they are willing to use CEDRI for these documents and to ensure that their approved title V program allows for submission of electronic documents in compliance with CROMERR. 

As long as the approved title V program allows for electronic submission, local permitting authorities can begin using CEDRI to receive these documents without any programmatic changes.

For additional information please refer to the list of Title V Reports available in CEDRI

In order to update a report that is associated with the wrong facility, the user must:

• Download/retain the file attachment
  • NOTE: If the report submission is associated with a template, and that template has undergone any "Major" change, then the user will need to download the new template and complete before uploading
• Withdraw the report with erroneous facility
• Add the correct facility to the "My Facilities" list on the CEDRI Dashboard
• Resubmit the report with the correct facility

Users can add their ‘State Facility ID’ to the “My Facilities” section, and search for reports based on that State Facility ID within “CEDRI History”.

After a report is submitted for the facility in which the State Facility was added, users can search for the State Facility ID within “CEDRI History”.

Please see the State Facility ID Job Aide

Bulk uploads allows a CEDRI user to compile data for multiple facilities within a single ZIP file that contains one Excel file and all related attachments. Multiple facilities’ data can be accounted for in the in the bulk submission regardless of the geographic location that is contained within the single submission package. The bulk upload option is available for certain reports within Part 60 and Part 63. 

The data for all facilities must be contained within a single excel file, which can be downloaded by clicking on the Reporting Utilities ‘Click here to access templates and schemas’ link within the applicable subpart on the Submission Package page, CEDRI Help page, or by accessing the CEDRI TTN website. If errors in the bulk data are found, a detailed list of validation errors will be presented including references to where the data needs to be corrected. You may correct the original excel file and re-upload the updated bulk upload zip file.

Once the bulk data zip file has been successfully uploaded and verified, CEDRI will split the data and create separate state specific reports, however, they will be contained within the same submission package (this is only applicable if the original excel file contains data pertaining to more than one State). At this point, the submission package is complete and ready for certification and signature by a certifier.

After the bulk upload is submitted, each state-specific report contained in the bulk upload submission will be archived in CROMERR and will occupy a single entry in the CEDRI submission history. CEDRI will send email notifications to State Reviewers for State Zip file and the reports will be available for both State and EPA Reviewers.

Once a bulk upload is successfully submitted, and the processing period for the report type has elapsed, CEDRI will send WebFIRE a separate entry for each report contained in the bulk upload for every individual facility, which will be broken up into individual reports.

eDisclosure is a centralized web-based portal for receiving and automatically processing self-disclosed civil violations submitted under EPA's Audit Policy and Small Business Compliance Policy. Utilizing the CDX system, this approach takes advantage of new IT tools to modernize how EPA receives and processes self-disclosed civil violations, making the process much faster for submitters and less resource intensive for both EPA and the regulated community. The new streamlined approach continues to show EPA's support for self-auditing by companies, so they find, report, and fix environmental violations.

You can visit the eDisclosure webpage for links to information that will help walk you through how to submit disclosures via the eDisclosure portal. If you need additional information, please call the CDX Help Desk: 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers.

The Central Data Exchange and the Next Generation eDisclosure Portal have been verified to work with vendor-supportedversions of Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Firefox. The Internet technologies required are designed to supportstandard World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards for all browsers. It is recommended that you use current versionsof any Web Browser in order to ensure proper functioning.

On-line transactions are managed using Transaction Layer Security limiting cryptography to those in compliance withFederal Information Processing Standards. For your protection, you are informed of any unauthorized attempts to access your account and are instructed to follow all CDX Terms and Conditions for the protection of your account and sensitive information.

No. All information you submit to EPA via the eDisclosure system may be released to the public. All users must agree that they are not submitting any confidential business information (CBI), and EPA will consider any CBI claims to be waived if such information is uploaded onto this system. If your disclosure requires the submission of such private or confidential business information, you must contact the eDisclosure Help Desk to arrange for secure transmittal of any necessary and appropriate information. For additional information please refer to the Warning Notice and User Agreement.

Those using the portal must: (1) register with the CDX systemhttps://cdx.epa.gov/; (2) promptly disclose their violations online within 21 days of discovery; and (3) submit an online Compliance Certification describing how any noncompliance was timely corrected. The Compliance Certification is ordinarily due within 60 days of submitting an initial online Audit Policy disclosure (or within 90 days for Small Business Compliance Policy disclosures), but limited reporting deadline extensions are possible in certain circumstances.

Once you have registered and confirmed your email address through the CDX Registration Email Confirmation hyperlink, you may log in using your User ID and Password to find a Program Service Role labeled: eDisclosure: Voluntary Disclosure System Disclose/Certify. You may click on the "Disclose/Certify" hyperlink to begin your voluntary self-disclosure process.

The ESA (and identity proofing) process is expedited in eDisclosure and failure to electronically complete the ESA process does not prevent the user from making a disclosure. You will be able to log in to CDX and click on the Disclose/Certify hyperlink to begin your voluntary self-disclosure process. The ESA will need to be in place for you to sign the compliance certification. You cannot certify your compliance certification until we have received and approved your paper Electronic Signature Agreement. If you have any questions, please contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers.

The portal can accept new disclosures involving all types of civil violations. New owners may use the portal to disclose violations, but the portal is not designed to apply the August 2008 New Owner Policy. To provide the benefits of the New Owner Policy, EPA will accept and process new owner disclosures outside the eDisclosure system. 

While many EPA regulatory programs support collection of confidential business information (CBI), eDisclosure is not designed to receive or process any information claimed as CBI. Disclosers must submit compliance information through the proper regulatory process and submit only evidence of compliance as (non-CBI) sanitized information through the online eDisclosure system. If you are unclear where to resubmit late reports that contain CBI, you should contact the help desk for that particular regulatory program reporting system or you may contact the eDisclosure Help Desk for further instruction on how to do so.

Anyone legally representing the company and authorized by a designated official employed by the entity may submit a disclosure on behalf of the entity.

The compliance certification must be signed by the owner/operator of the company, or someone legally representing the company and authorized by a designated official employed by the entity. So, a lawyer or consultant representing the company may certify compliance documents. An individual not employed by or representing the company may not certify compliance.

Please follow the steps below to share disclosure information and/or delegate reporting on behalf of your organization:

• Step 1: Once you have registered for the eDisclosure Program Service, enter the Disclose/Certify Service;
• Step 2: Accept the Warning Notice and User Agreement;
• Step 3: Click on the "Sharing" tab, which will become visible at the top of the page;
• Step 4: Through the "Sharing" tab, you can add others' email addresses and grant them access to complete; and
• Step 5: If the person with whom you are sharing disclosure information is not registered with CDX, that user will be prompted to create a CDX account before entering the eDisclosure portal.

You may consolidate your disclosures under a single CDX account. The CDX eDisclosure portal allows you to independently prepare disclosures. Registrants representing many companies will need to go to the "My Profile" tab, create a new organization, and request the eDisclosure service. Additionally, registrants should take care not to share disclosures inappropriately; however, registrants do not have to register separate CDX accounts for each submission. If you certify compliance documents for multiple companies, you will be required to sign a separate Electronic Signature Agreement for each company, but not for each company facility.

No. Only regulated entities with pre-existing unresolved EPCRA disclosures may resubmit such disclosures through the eDisclosure system within 120 days of its launch date (i.e., on or before April 7, 2016). Where a regulated entity is re-submitting a previously disclosed EPCRA violation, the entity must enter the date it originally discovered the previously disclosed violation and the date it was previously disclosed, and certify that the previously disclosed EPCRA violation was timely corrected. Timely correction is normally within 60 days of violation discovery for disclosures submitted under the Audit Policy and within 90 days of violation discovery for disclosures submitted pursuant to the Small Business Compliance Policy. However, no extensions of the 60-day or 90-day violation correction periods are available for such pre-existing EPCRA disclosures. All other pre-existing disclosures (i.e., non-EPCRA disclosures and pre-existing EPCRA disclosures that are not resubmitted within 120 days of eDisclosure launch) are treated as Category 2 disclosures and the Federal Register Notice announcing the launch of eDisclosure serves as the Acknowledgement Letter for such disclosures. If and when EPA considers taking enforcement action for environmental violations, it will make a determination as to eligibility for penalty mitigation.

Most all of the items on the form require you to enter information. Many items will have a question mark beside the input field, which may be clicked for additional information on that item. When you do not complete all required items, the system automatically will send error or warning messages instructing you further. Certain data fields are optional and are provided for convenience because it may be beneficial to you to supply this additional information.

In order to access a facility's forms in eDisclosure, you must first register in CDX. Next the original submitter must share forms with you through the Sharing tab within the eDisclosure portal.

Follow your original CDX Terms and Conditions to contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers. Registrants of eDisclosure will be asked to determine a successor and use the Sharing Tab within the eDisclosure Portal to pass on historic disclosures to a new individual, if applicable.

To access eDisclosure, you must log in to CDX and go to your "MyCDX" page. The eDisclosure Program Service will be listed here. If you cannot find your original email you may go to https://cdx.epa.gov and log in and re-try verifying your email address, or you may contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers, or send an email to helpdesk@epacdx.net and they will assist you in obtaining access to the on-line application form.

You will receive an automated confirmation email.

Generally, no. eDisclosure allows saving of draft violation disclosures and compliance certifications prior to submitting to the Agency. An entity should carefully review the information prior to certifying its submission. In the event that new information comes to light before certification, the system will permit withdrawal of violation disclosure or inclusion on the compliance certification of violations in statutory programs that were not part of the submitted disclosure, provided the information submitted on the compliance certification form also applies to any such newly added legal provisions.

Yes. Anytime an eDisclosure compliance certification is signed, certified, and submitted, an automated email is sent to the certifier and anyone with whom the disclosure has been shared.

Violation and compliance reporting must comply with the conditions of the Audit Policy or Small Business Compliance Policy. If your disclosure or compliance certification does not meet the policy requirements, an ineligibility letter will be issued. If you need further clarification, please refer to the website: http://www2.epa.gov/compliance/epas-edisclosure.

Yes. eDisclosure allows voluntary disclosed violations to be withdrawn. If you determine that no violation has occurred or that the disclosure was submitted in error, it can be withdrawn up until the time the compliance certification is due. It is up to registrants to decide whether to withdraw or complete its compliance certification.

Not necessarily. Each ESA is based on your authorization to submit on behalf of the company/organization. If you have registered for eDisclosure under the same company in your "My Profile" services, you will typically not need to be identity proofed again, or submit a new ESA. If you are reporting for a company name that is new, depending on whether you have been previously identity proofed, sufficiently, by a prior Program, you may not be required to identity proof again, but you will need to attest that you are authorized to sign on behalf of the additional Organization.

Your current account should have access to all disclosures through the use of the "Submission History" tab. Use the Submission History to search for specific records and print both the hyperlinked submission (and the detached-signature)as a record of your electronic certification. Electronically Signed Records are retained for at least 5 years after your CDX account is de-activated. If your account has been deactivated, you may contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers or helpdesk@epacdx.net and they will assist you.

CDX provides an interface for submitters to upload a ZIP files from their workstation (Commonly your C: / drive), to the eDisclosure portal. The uploaded files may be in PDF or standard Microsoft Office formats but may also be submitted together in the form of a ZIP file that contains a number of variable of files (2-40 files including a control file which lists the names of the other files in the ZIP file). Please limit total file sizes to 50MB to ensure optimal results under less than optimal Network performance.

As long as all facilities belong to the same company, yes. You may report on violations based on multiple EPA Facilities you manage in the Violation Disclosure tab.

The Manage Facility button within the Violation Disclosure tab allows you to search and select your facilities and move them on the map. You may also change the address as needed.

The EPA Facility Identifiers are assigned per facility location. A "Manage Facilities" search under the "Violation Disclosure" tab should continue to show facilities. If the facility is not found during a search, there is an option to create new facility.

Use the "Manage Facilities Address" search with at least 2 qualifiers and use the map "X" to mark the actual location of the facility. The Latitude/Longitude will be automatically populated so you should no longer receive this error message.

Check your spam or junk inbox for an email from the CDX Help Desk. If you do not see any emails, please contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers or helpdesk@epacdx.net and they will assist you.

Your ESA is stored in your Submission History. To print a copy, go to your "MyCDX" page and click on the "Submission History" to search and locate your ESA. One of the emails in your inbox should have the title "Electronic Signature Agreement" date if you are having trouble locating the ESA. This email will have the copy of the ESA in html format. If you have deleted this ESA by mistake, please contact the CDX help desk to obtain a copy of your ESA.

Timing-out is a security feature of the system. The system will time-out after 20 minutes of inactivity to protect your authority to sign documents in the event that you step away from your computer. You have the option to save documents in order to return, later, and submit or certify them.

Consultants, attorneys, or other agents may disclose violations through the eDisclosure portal on behalf of a regulated entity. The portal requires all persons submitting information to the system to be identify-proofed. It also allows a submitter to specify on whose behalf he is submitting a disclosure. All information submitted to the system must be certified. The certifier must be the owner/operator of the company or someone legally representing the company and authorized by a designated senior management official employed by the entity

In order to maintain the integrity of the data submitted into the eDisclosure portal, all submitters must complete a brief registration and identity-proofing process. This will help to ensure that the system receives only disclosures that regulated entities or their agents intend to submit

There are two reasons why you may not see your grant. First, you will not see grants awarded before 2008. Currently, electronic reporting for the Exchange Network Grant Semi-Annual Reporting Forms is required and available for Exchange Network grants awarded in 2008 or later. EPA is considering providing the option to report electronically for grants awarded in 2007 or earlier. If the Agency decides to implement that option, EPA's Regional Project Officers will notify grantees. We will also ask ECOS to send out an Network Alert. Second, you will not see PPG's and CG's with Exchange Network grant funding listed. Electronic reporting is not required for Exchange Network grants that are part of PPG's awarded through 2010. Starting in 2011, however, electronic reporting for PPG's with Exchange Network grant funding will be required. For grants awarded prior to 2008 and PPG's/CG's awarded prior to 2011, please continue to submit your reports to your project officer via email.

EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting program applies to all states, tribes and territories where EPA has not specifically provided authorization for that state, tribe, or territory to operate the program themselves.

Currently, there are 15 states and 1 tribe that are authorized by EPA to operate their own RRP programs in lieu of the federal program. Contractors working in these states: Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin, or in the Bois Forte Tribe should contact the respective state or tribe for more information about their training and certification requirements. Links to these state programs are available here. Note that if you work in more than one state, you may need both EPA federal and state certification.

Firms operating in all other states, territories, or tribes administered by EPA can become certified by first searching for their firm online at https://www.epa.gov/lead/lead-renovationabatement-firm-certification-application-or-update. If you cannot locate your firm using the search and can confirm your firm does not have a current or pending certification, you can begin an application to certify a new firm using the link provided at the bottom of the "Results" page. Please note that the search results area of the webpage has its own scroll bar separate from the main page; you need to scroll to the bottom of this area to see the link to begin a new firm application. If you work in more than one state, you may need both EPA federal and state certifications.

EPA's Abatement program applies to all states, tribes and territories where EPA has not specifically provided authorization for that state, tribe, or territory to operate the program themselves.

EPA only administers the abatement program in the following states, tribes, and territories: Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wyoming or American Samoa, Guam, the Marianas and all tribal lands except the Cherokee Nation, Upper and Lower Sioux Nations, and the Bois Forte Band. Contractors working in these areas can become certified by first searching for their firm online at https://www.epa.gov/lead/lead-renovationabatement-firm-certification-application-or-update.If you cannot locate your firm using the search and can confirm your firm does not have a current or pending certification, you can begin an application to certify a new firm using the link provided at the bottom of the "Results" page. Please note that the search results area of the webpage has its own scroll bar separate from the main page; you need to scroll to the bottom of this area to see the link to begin a new firm application. If you work in more than one state, you may need both EPA federal and state certifications.

Firms operating in any states, territories, or tribes not listed in the previous paragraph should contact the respective state or tribe for more information about their training and certification requirements. Links to these state programs are available here. Note that if you work in more than one state, you may need both EPA federal and state certification.

You will receive an email from lead.paint@epa.gov when your application is approved. The email will include PDF copies of your approval letter and certificate. Renovation firms will also receive a customized logo and guidelines for its use in the approval email. Applications are typically processed in 2 to 3 weeks. You will be contacted if an issue arises in the processing of your application. You can also login to your CDX Inbox, as the approval package will be posted there as well. 

Approval packages are sent by email; occasionally these messages end up in your junk or spam, so be sure to check those folders for an email from lead.paint@epa.gov. You can also login to your CDX Inbox, as the approval package will be posted there as well.

EPA's Abatement program applies to all states, tribes, and territories where EPA has not specifically provided authorization for that state, tribe, or territory to operate the program themselves. Abatement activities include the following disciplines:

• Inspectors may perform inspection and post-abatement clearance activities.
• Risk assessors may perform inspection, post-abatement clearance, lead hazard screen, and risk assessment activities.
• Supervisors may supervise abatement projects and prepare occupant protection plans and abatement reports. Supervisors may also perform all of the abatement activities that may be performed by abatement workers. 
• Project designers may prepare occupant protection plans and abatement reports for abatement projects. 
• Abatement workers may conduct abatement activities under the direction of certified abatement supervisors. 

EPA only administers the abatement program in the following states, tribes, and territories: Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wyoming or the tribal lands of Cherokee Nation, Lower Sioux Nation, Upper Sioux Community, or Bois Forte Band.Individuals working in these areas that are seeking a Lead Abatement Certification or Recertification must submit applications online by following https://cfpub.epa.gov/flpp/pub/index.cfm?do=main.individualSearch and proceeding to Central Data Exchange (CDX), EPA's electronic reporting system, from there.

Individuals working in any states, territories or tribes not listed in the previous paragraph should contact the respective state or tribe for more information about their training and certification requirements. Links to these state programs are available here. Note that if you work in more than one state, you may need both EPA federal and state certifications.

Trainers seeking accreditation in an EPA administered state must submit their applications and fees online through EPA's CDX system: https://cdx.epa.gov.

RCRA is the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, which was first enacted by Congress in 1976; it has been amended several times. RCRA's primary goals are to protect human health and the environment from the potential hazards of waste disposal, to conserve energy and natural resources, to reduce the amount of waste generated, and to ensure that wastes are managed in an environmentally sound manner. RCRA regulates the management of solid waste (e.g., garbage), hazardous waste, and underground storage tanks holding petroleum products or certain chemicals. Regulated wastes are hazardous wastes as defined by Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR) Part 261, universal wastes as defined by 40 CFR Part 273, and used oil as defined by 40 CFR Part 279. Click here for the EPA web site for RCRA regulations.

If you are subject to requirements under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) for notifying the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of your regulated waste activities, you must submit complete and submit this form. Be sure to review the Notification of Regulated Waste Activity Instructions and Forms booklet before completing the form. As a handler of regulated wastes, you are responsible for learning and complying with all the requirements that apply to you and your regulated waste activities. RCRA is a Federal law. If you are regulated but do not comply with the RCRA notification requirements, you may be subject to civil penalties.

In addition, remember that the regulations in 40 CFR address only the Federal hazardous waste program. Many States may have notification requirements that differ from the Federal requirements; those States may use EPA Form 8700-12 or they may use a similar State form that requires information not requested in the EPA form. Again, it is your responsibility to make sure that you have completed and submitted all forms required under the Federal or your State program.

The Notification of Regulated Waste Activity Instructions and Forms booklet (EPA Form 8700-12) can be downloaded from the Internet at:

https://www.epa.gov/epawaste/index.htm.

The instructions contained in this booklet will assist you in obtaining an EPA Identification Number for initial notifications or in revising your form if you are required to submit a subsequent notification. Although this booklet contains information and instructions for completing a Notification of Regulated Waste Activity, it should not be considered a substitute for the regulations in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Rather, this booklet serves as a supplement to the regulations and provides additional information not contained in 40 CFR.

No. You may still complete the EPA Form 8700-12 and mail it to the appropriate office indicated in the form's instructions. However, you may elect to complete and submit the form on this web page. You are not required to file this form through the Central Data Exchange.

You cannot use the Federal form for some States. Certain States require that you use their specific forms. At this time, there are no States that allow filers to file the RCRA Subtitle C Site Identification Form.

Go to https://cdx.epa.gov and click "If you are new to CDX and wish to register, please click here." Enter in the required information. Then, choose the "RCRA Subtitle C Site Identification Form" radio button to register for the RCRA program. You only have to register once. If you are responsible for filing the form for multiple RCRA regulated facilities, you will be given a chance associate your registration with all of the facilities.

All information you submit in an initial or subsequent notification can be released to the public, according to the Freedom of Information Act, unless it is determined to be confidential by EPA pursuant to 40 CFR Part 2. Since notification information is very general, EPA believes it is unlikely that any information in your notification could qualify to be protected from release.

However, you may make a claim of confidentiality by filing a paper form and printing the word "CONFIDENTIAL" on both sides of RCRA Subtitle C Site Identification Form and on any attachments. EPA will take action on the confidentiality claims in accordance with 40 CFR Part 2. The electronic submission makes no allowances for confidential submissions.

Most all of the items on the form require you to enter information. Be sure to read the instructions in the booklet carefully and enter the information for the items that apply to you. Only the items that are marked with a red asterisk are required. If you do not complete these, you will be sent to an error screen that tells you what must be done to continue. Certain items are provided for convenience and it may be beneficial to you to supply this additional information.

Yes. When you get to the main menu of the RCRA Subtitle C Site Identification Form, you will be able to enter a form with the data elements pre-populated with information from a previous submission or choose to enter data into a "clean" form.

Data for a single Site Identification Form is entered just like you would for any web form. For convenience, the form has been broken up into sections similar to the federal paper form. At the bottom of each page you will see a series of buttons. By making the appropriate choice, you can navigate back and forth through the web form.

When you have completed entering the data into the form, you will be given a choice to save the electronic submission of the form or cancel the submission. A confirmation screen will appear. You must print this form, have all certifiers sign the form, and send it via mail to the office listed at the top of the screen. You will not need to submit the entire e-form with the confirmation screen printout. In the event you misplace the confirmation screen, you will be able to enter CDX and print another copy.

We will be implementing digital signature technology into the web form in the future. At that time, you will be able to choose how you wish to sign the form, electronically or via a "wet" ink signature.

No. Only the elements that are marked with a red asterisk are required. If you do not fill out these elements, you will be sent to an error screen that tells you what must be done to continue. However, you may complete all elements of the form if you wish. Certain elements are provided as a convenience and it may be beneficial to you to supply those pieces of information.

Don't worry; this form has built-in data recovery technology. If your browser crashes, or you lose your Internet connection, you can simply return to the CDX web site and continue filling out your form. If you choose, you can begin the submission process again.

You will receive a confirmation email with a copy of the data that you submitted as well as a transaction id number that can be used to print another confirmation screen, track the status of your submission, or make modifications to your submission.

The submission will be forwarded to the appropriate reviewing official in the EPA Region or State agency. The official will either approve or reject the submission. An email with the official's decision will be sent to the filer's email address. If a submission is rejected, you may be able to make corrections to the submission and resubmit. Approved submissions will be placed on file within the EPA's RCRA database.

Note: Once a submission is approved, you will not be able to update that submission. Instead you must complete another new submission.

Yes. Using the transaction id number, you can use the "Check the status" option to determine where your Site Identification Form is within the submission pipeline.

Yes. Choose "print" from the RCRA Subtitle C Site Identification Form, and you will be provided with an electronic facsimile of the form completed with your information.

Since submissions are linked specifically to information you provide in conjunction with your CDX User ID/password and are submitted via SSL technology, they are relatively secure. Do not provide your CDX User ID/password to other individuals or leave your Internet browser open while logged into CDX. This is a breach of your agreement with the EPA's Central Data Exchange and may result in the revocation of your CDX privileges.

Contact the RCRA Superfund Hotline at 1-800-424-9346

Under the authority of section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act, the Chemical Accident Prevention Provisions require facilities that produce, handle, process, distribute, or store certain chemicals to develop a Risk Management Program, prepare a Risk Management Plan (RMP), and submit the RMP to EPA. Covered facilities were initially required to comply with the rule in 1999; the rule has been amended on several occasions, most recently in 2004.

The Risk Management Program Rule (RMP Rule) under 40 CFR 68, published June 20, 1996, and last amended June 21, 2004, is the regulation that outlines the requirements for the Risk Management Program.

For regulation and further information, consult EPA's Website: https://www.epa.gov/rmp

It is EPA's secure, Web-based system to submit an RMP. It replaces earlier PC-based software.

RMP*eSubmit allows you to:

• View the current version of your RMP (if you have already reported an RMP)
• Create a new RMP on-line (if this is your first-time submission)
• Make corrections to, or create a complete resubmission of your RMP
• Identify and correct any errors in your RMP prior to submission
• Access help screens to assist you in completing your RMP.

EPA's website, https://www.epa.gov/rmp includes the Risk Management Program rule, the list of regulated substances, fact sheets, guidance documents, FAQs, the RMP*eSubmit User's Manual, and other information.

Contact the RMP Reporting Center for specific software questions about RMP*eSubmit.
703-227-7650
RMPRC@epacdx.net

Unless there is a major revision to your RMP that requires reporting to EPA you don't need to perform a resubmission before the due date.

Use RMP*eSubmit to submit a sanitized version of your RMP. The sanitized version would identify each data element, except chemical identity, claimed as CBI by entering CBI into the data field. Your RMP will be deemed Incomplete until you submit a CBI un-sanitized data element form and CBI substantiation form, signed by the owner/operator certifying the accuracy of the claims to the RMP Reporting Center.
For more information regarding CBI Submission contact the RMP Reporting Center at 703-227-7650.

The RMP*eSubmit application does not allow any De-registration/Withdrawal of RMPs. Please continue submitting your De-registration/Withdrawal request with all required information to the RMP Reporting Center. The De-registration form is Appendix E of the RMP*eSubmit Users' Manual.
For more information contact the RMP Reporting Center at 703-227-7650.

If you do not have an account created in CDX, you can create a new account and then add RMP*eSubmit program into your profile. Only the Certifier can add the RMP facilities. The Certifier gets to decide who the preparer can be.

Yes. You can add any number of facilities as long as you are the Certifier for those facilities.

You can be a Certifier and also the Preparer for any facility as long as you have those roles.
NOTE: There can only be 1 preparer associated with a facility at any given point of time.

Only a Certifier can add a new facility in RMP*eSubmit. In the MyCDX screen the certifier must click on the "RMPESUBMIT: Certify Submission" role. The Certifier can then select the "Add Facilities" link on the left side of the screen. On the Add Facilities screen, the certifier must enter the EPA Facility Identifier of the facility he/she would like to add, or enter information for a new facility. Multiple facilities can be added at once by clicking the "Add Another Facility" button for each new addition. The certifier must then click the "Save" button to send the facility request for review and approval by the RMP Reporting Center.

If you previously signed a standard CDX ESA for another program service that uses the same CDX organization as your RMP ESUBMIT Certifying Official role, you most likely are not required to submit another ESA.

If you pass electronic identity verification, ESAs can be signed electronically in CDX. If you opt for paper verification, mail the original printed version of the complete ESA (all pages) with the original (wet ink) signature.

If you previously registered for the RMPESUBMIT Certifying Official role and have not yet verified your identity or signed a standard CDX ESA, you will be prompted to complete identity proofing and ESA when clicking on the “Certify Submission” role link. You will be able to complete the process using one of the below methods:

Electronically - fastest method

1. Verify identity using LexisNexis.
2. If you pass verification, electronically sign the standard CDX ESA.

Paper process – if you opt out of or fail the limited LexisNexis identity verification attempts

1. Click “Paper Verification” option.
2. Print the standard CDX ESA - the Status for the role will change to “Awaiting ESA Approval” on the MyCDX page.
3. Sign the paper ESA with wet ink.
4. Mail the ESA to the RMP Reporting Center (address located on the last page of the ESA).
5. The RMP Reporting Center will verify ESA information and activate the role if appropriate.

Once the above electronic or paper process is complete, you will be able to access RMP*eSubmit.

Yes. You can have multiple EPA Facility Identifiers in your request as long as you are the approved certifier for those facilities.

One of the emails in your inbox should have the title "Electronic Signature Agreement". This email will have the copy of the ESA in html format. If in case you have deleted this ESA by mistake, please contact the CDX help desk to obtain a copy of your ESA.

No. The owner/operator must designate an actual person (not a company).

Certifiers are facility owners or operators who must certify the accuracy and completeness of the information reported in the RMP. They have signed and submitted a one-time Electronic Signature Agreement (ESA) to the EPA. The ESA legally binds the Certifier's electronic submission to their signature. Only Certifiers can submit the RMP.
Preparers have been granted permission by a facility to access the facility's existing RMP. They prepare data for a new or updated RMP. CDX notifies the Certifier when the new or corrected RMP is ready for the Certifier's review and submission. Preparers cannot submit the RMP.

The Certifier must be the owner/operator of the company or someone working in the company and authorized by a designated senior management official employed by the facility. A Consultant cannot be designated as the certifier.

The new Certifier will need to register in CDX and add the RMP*eSubmit program to their profile after which they can request access to the facility. After approval by the RMP Reporting Center, the Certifier will get an email confirming the addition of the EPA Facility Identifier under their profile.

As soon as the RMP Reporting Center receives the facility request electronically, they will usually process it the same working day. It could take a few days to a week during periods of high demand. If there are no issues, the Reporting Center will send the AuthCode by e-mail to the Certifying Official. If there are any discrepancies, the Reporting Center will contact the Certifying Official to resolve the issue(s).

You may deactivate your facility Certifier/Preparer role on RMPESUBMIT by following the method below:

1. Log into your CDX account.
2. On the CDX Homepage, select your RMPESUBMIT role (Certifying Official or Preparer).
3. Select the Manage Facilities tab from the left hand navigation.
4. On Manage Facilities, select the checkboxes for all facilities you wish to remove Certifier/Preparer access from,
5. Click the Deactivate Role button to continue.

If you require assistance, please contact the RMP Reporting Center at 703-227-7650 or RMPRC@epacdx.net.

No, paper RMP submissions are no longer accepted. Submitters must use RMP*eSubmit.

The Certifying Official must send a letter to the EPA on company letterhead indicating they will no longer be associated. The letter will need to include the following:
 

1. The name of the Certifying Official to be removed
2. The CDX User ID for that person
3. The Facility ID associated with the Certifying Official whose access will be removed
4. The letter should be signed by the Certifying Official in question. If that individual is not available or no longer with the company, the letter can be signed by another individual who is currently a Certifying Official for RMP, or someone who is at an equivalent or superior level of responsibility to that of the Certifying Official.
5. The letter should be mailed to:
      RMP Reporting Center
      P.O. Box 10162
      Fairfax, VA 22038
   
   For courier or overnight delivery, the address is:
      RMP Reporting Center
      c/o CGI Federal, Inc.
      12601 Fair Lakes Circle
      Fairfax, VA 22033

Timing-out is a security feature of the system. The systems will time-out after 20 minutes of inactivity. Your work will automatically be saved.

Submitting a correction to your RMP does not change your five-year anniversary date. A correction should be used to report administrative or other changes at your facility (e.g. changes in emergency contact information, facility address, or change in accident history). This does not require an update of your entire RMP.

Your current RMP can only be seen by the Certifier and/or Preparer of the facility. In the "Facility Selection" screen, select the "View Current RMP" link, which will open your current RMP in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format. You have the option to print your RMP within this screen.

Yes. As long as you are the preparer and the RMP is in the edit mode, you will be able to make updates.

No. The EPA Facility Identifiers are assigned per facility location. If a De-Registered facility needs to re-register, they will need to file an ESA for approval with the same EPA Facility Identifier that is already on record.

There is no defined rule to complete an RMP. The user has the option to update RMPs as they desire. As long as the RMP is not submitted for Certification, the user can update RMPs however they want to.

Anytime an RMP is signed, certified and submitted an automated email is sent to the certifier and preparer to their registered email addresses and to their CDX Inbox.

Yes. On the Pending Submissions page you will see the RMP waiting for Certification/Rejection. Next to it is a link which will open the submitted RMP in .pdf format. The certifier can either certify or reject the pending RMP.

The e-mail should contain the reason(s) for rejection. If you need further clarification on the rejection, contact the Certifier who had rejected the RMP. As a preparer you will always have the opportunity to make corrections and resubmit your RMP.

Have the Certifier reject the submission. This allows the Preparer to make any additional changes.

To change your submission type click the "Cancel RMP" button on the “View, Cancel, Validate and Submit to Certify RMP” screen. Then select the correct transaction type from the Initiate Submission column on the “Available Facilities” screen.
Note: This process will undo any changes you have made.

No. Traditional RMP Notification letters will no longer be sent to submitters. Instead, an email notification is sent to the Preparer and Certifier as soon as the RMP is Certified and submitted.

Yes. You can select the same set of security questions for different CDX accounts.

You must find a reliable source (i.e. Google Earth) in which to calculate your facility's latitude and longitude. Once you've entered the correct data, you will no longer receive this error message.

RMP*Comp is a free program that you can use to complete the offsite consequence analyses (both worst case scenarios and alternative scenarios) required under the Risk Management Program rule. RMP*Comp can be accessed at EPA's Web site RMP*Comp.

Please refer to the RMP*eSubmit User's Manual. Visit https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-07/documents/rmp_esubmit_users_manual.pdf.There is an explicit description of how to select your facility's Program Level.

The executive summary must include a brief description of your facility's risk management program. You determine the length; it may be as short as two or three pages or, if you have many processes, it may need to be lengthy. You should view the Executive Summary as an opportunity to communicate in your own words the nature of the risks posed by your facility to your community and to explain what you have done to minimize that risk. The summary can be an excellent vehicle to display the effort and resources your facility has put into its accident prevention program.

Once you have selected the "Submit to Certify" link as a preparer, you must wait for the Certifier to certify/reject the RMP before you can edit the RMP in any way. No changes can be made to your RMP when it is in "Pending Certify" status.

Contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers, so that they can initiate action to reset your 20-5-1 security questions.

No. The certifier can reject the submission if any changes need to be made. Only the Preparer can make the necessary corrections.

No. An incomplete submittal is not accepted by the system as a submission, so only the Preparer can see their incomplete (or draft) submission.

The state field is not an editable field, and has been disabled in RMP*eSubmit. If your facility has changed states, you will need to deregister, and file a first-time submission for the facility in the new state.

This field represents the state corresponding to the data that is being submitted. If you are an EPA regional user, you should select the state that the data corresponds to, not the state where you reside. If data are for tribal water systems, the region should enter their two digit region code.

This field describes they type of data that you are submitting to the SDWIS system:

Inventory = INV
Actions = ACT
Both = BOT (Both Inventory and Actions data)
Samples = SAM

This can be the fiscal year that the file is being submitted in, or the fiscal year that the actions/sample file represents. It will not be used for actions total replace domain processing.

This field represents the one digit quarter of the file. This should be the quarter in which the file is being generated.

This field represents how the file is to be processed by SDWIS/FED:

Traditional processing = TRAD (Incremental)
Total replace processing = TOTR (Total replacement of the data in the system)

This field represents the supplier of the data. (States and regions can submit data via CDX)

State = ST
Region = RG

This field represents a freeform two-character alphanumeric comment field, allowing a region and state to insert a value to provide additional meaning to the data set contents. Any blanks will be filled in, by CDX, with the letter 'b', in the data set name. If left blank by the user, the data set name will contain the value 'bb' in these positions. This will allow users the flexibility to add an additional piece of information to further characterize the data set name. Regional and state staff should reach agreement on the contents of this field. For example, it could be used to differentiate between different primacy agencies in a state, so values such as CO or NC could be used to differentiate between community and non-community water system primacy agency data.

SWIPR is a website for sending photographs of operating Impoundments where uranium tailings are collected from conventional uranium mills based on 40 CFR Part 61 Subpart W. Subpart W requires operating uranium recovery facilities to employ specific management practices or generally available control technology (GACT) to control radon emissions. When operating Impoundments are actively being used for the continued placement of uranium byproduct material or tailings, or are in standby status, photographs should be reported through SWIPR. A SWIPR Users Guide is available with detailed instructions on how to create a reporting account, how to add your facilities to your account, and how to submit a report. The guide may be downloaded here.

You may visit the U.S. EPA's Radiation Protection Page for information on the regulation, Subpart W. A SWIPR User Guide is available with detailed instructions on how to create a reporting account, how to add your facilities to your account, and how to submit a report.

If you have any questions, please contact the CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers.

You may consolidate your SWIPR reporting under a single CDX account. CDX allows you to add organizations and then add SWIPR multiple times using the My Profile tab on the main MyCDX dashboard. Registrants representing many companies will need to go to the "My Profile" tab, create a new organization, and request the SWIPR service once for each company they represent. While registrants do not have to register separate CDX accounts for each submission, in order to certify reports you will be required to sign a separate Electronic Signature Agreement for each organization.

Yes. There are two ways to reach your submission. First, there is a tab on the primary MyCDX dashboard labeled "Submission History" where you may search for, list/sort and retrieve previous reports. Second, an email receipt will be sent to your registered mailbox with a hyperlink to the report. If you need to rescind or report a correction to a previously submitted report, please contact CDX Help Desk at 888-890-1995 and provide them information. Note that you will only be able to see the reports that you have submitted. For security/privacy reasons, you will not be able to see reports submitted by others in your organization, even if the reports are submitted for the same facility. If you rescind a report, or your report is rejected, a message will appear in your transaction history, and you may be required to certify a new report. Editing old reports is not an option.

Required input fields will be marked with an asterisk (*), e.g. time of date that photograph was captured. Input items may also offer a question mark beside the field, which may be clicked for additional information on requirements for that item. When you do not complete all required items, the system automatically will send error or warning messages instructing you further. Certain data fields are optional and are provided for convenience because it may be beneficia to you to supply this additional information.

In order to add a facility's Impoundments in SWIPR, you must first register in CDX. The "Manage Impoundments" button will offer a way to search for Impoundments already in the system. If the Impoundment you wish to add is not located, you may enter it in the database. For more details and instructions, see the User Guide and Training Video.

Follow your original CDX Terms and Conditions to contact CDX Help Desk to inactivate your account by calling 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers. In order to assist onboarding a new individual to perform Subpart W reports in your place, you will have to contact Dan Schultheisz (Schultheisz.Daniel@epa.gov) to set up access to a separate account for your organization.

You will receive an automated confirmation email. Anytime a Subpart W Information Report is signed, certified, and submitted, an automated email is also sent to the Submitter. If you do not receive a confirmation email, you should log into CDX and go to the "Submission History" tab and search to confirm the report was submitted, and report any email problems you have to CDX Helpdesk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers.

Generally, no. SWIPR delivers all signed reports to the U.S. EPA. An entity should carefully review the information prior to certifying its submission. In the event that new information comes to light before certification, reporters may contact CDX Helpdesk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers to rescind a report and report again.

Generally, no. SWIPR delivers all signed reports to the U.S. EPA. An entity should carefully review the information prior to certifying its submission. Similar to corrections, in the event that a report needs to be rescinded for any reason, reporters may contact CDX Helpdesk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers to rescind a report and report again.

Not necessarily. Each ESA is based on your authorization to submit on behalf of the company/organization. If you have registered for SWIPR using the same company as another Program in your "My Profile" services, you will typically not need to be identity proofed again or submit a new ESA. If you are reporting for a new or different company name, address or phone number, depending on whether you have been previously identity proofed sufficiently by a prior Program, you may not be required to identity proof, again, but you will need to sign an ESA that attests that you are authorized to sign on behalf of the additional Organization.

CDX provides an interface for submitters to upload a variety of photographic formats. It is strongly recommended that you use *.JPG to reduce file sizes and upload times. Please limit total file sizes to 50MB per submission to assure optimal results under less than optimal Network performance.

Yes, as long as all Impoundments belong to the same company. Use the "Manage Impoundments" button to set up the proper Impoundments for each company.

Your ESA is stored in your Submission History. To print a copy, go to MyCDX page and click on the "Submission History" to search and locate your ESA. One of the emails in your inbox should have the title "Electronic Signature Agreement" date if you are having trouble locating the ESA. This email will have the copy of the ESA in html format. If you have deleted this ESA by mistake, please contact CDX help desk to obtain a copy of your ESA.

Timing-out is a security feature of the system. The system will time-out after 20 minutes of inactivity to protect your authority to sign documents in the event that you step away from your computer.

If you are unable to electronically verify your identity through CDX, you will have to print and sign the ESA and submit it via mail according to instructions on the ESA. Please contact the CDX Helpdesk at 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers for support if needed.

You may edit some information in your account without having to re-verify your identity (e.g. mailing address). You can manage your contact information in the "My Profile" tab in your CDX dashboard.

Before contacting the CDX Helpdesk, please review the SWIPR User Manual, Training Video and the Frequent Questions listed in this area. If you still have questions, please call the CDX Helpdesk.

While the CDX system is generally reliable, there are times that it may be down for maintenance or improvements. If you are unable to access the system and you have an urgent need, please contact the CDX Helpdesk by calling 888-890-1995 or (970) 494-5500 for International callers.

No. Each report submitted via the SWIPR system is electronically signed and goes through an identity verification process which links the submission to the individual. You will only be able to see the reports that you have submitted. For security/privacy reasons, you will not be able to see reports submitted by others in your organization, even if the reports are submitted for the same facility.

The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) is a database that contains detailed information on nearly 650 chemicals and chemical categories that over 23,000 industrial and other facilities manage through disposal or other releases, recycling, energy recovery, or treatment. The data are collected from industries including manufacturing, metal and coal mining, electric utilities, commercial hazardous waste treatment, and other industrial sectors. Information on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) can be found at www2.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program/my-facilitys-six-digit-naics-code-tri-covered-industry.

Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986 was enacted to facilitate emergency planning, to minimize the effects of potential toxic chemical accidents, and to provide the public with information on releases of toxic chemicals in their communities. The Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) of 1990 mandates collection of data on toxic chemicals that are treated, recycled, and combusted for energy recovery. Together, these laws require facilities in certain industries, which manufacture, process, or use toxic chemicals above specified amounts, to report annually on disposal or other releases and other waste management activities related to these chemicals.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains this information in a national database called the Toxics Release Inventory, which is available to the public via the Internet at www2.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program.

Registering through CDX for SDWARS allows:

• Public water systems (PWSs) to view and accept their notification letter;
• EPA-approved laboratories to post results for PWSs to review;
• PWSs to meet their reporting requirements; and
• States and EPA to review the PWS’s monitoring results.

Only EPA-approved laboratories for UCMR 5 will receive an invitation to register in CDX for SDWARS. These invitations will be issued beginning in mid-2022.

You can have multiple PWSs consolidated under an individual CDX account since they all have the same role type as PWSs. When you register for an individual PWS, you can specify an existing CDX account and add that PWS. If you already have multiple CDX accounts for individual PWSs you represent, you can consolidate these under one CDX account through self-nomination.

A Customer Retrieval Key (CRK) letter has been sent in a notification email or a physical letter to every applicable PWS. The CRK should be entered at https://cdx.epa.gov/preregistration/. If you have not received a CRK letter or have misplaced it, please contact UCMR5@glec.com. If you have used a UCMR 5 specific CRK and still do not see SDWARS 5 on your CDX account, please contact the CDX Help Desk by sending an email to helpdesk@epacdx.net with “UCMR Registration” in the e-mail subject line or by calling 1-888-890-1995.
