Salisbury Street 11612 Mail Service Center I Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1612 919 707 9200 Submitting Outfall Information for E -Reporting The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Electronic Reporting Rule in December 2015. The rule requires NPDES regulated facilities to report certain information electronically, instead of filing written paper reports. EPA is phasing in the requirements of the rule over a 5 -year period. The first phase required regulated entities to submit Data Monitoring Reports (DMRs) electronically starting on December 21, 2016. We realize that deadline has passed, and EPA is aware that NC is working on expanding the State's eDMR System (currently available to NPDES Wastewater Permit -holders) to include Stormwater Program DMR reporting. As soon as eDMR is available for your permit, we will notify you. In the meantime, we must collect information about the discharge outfalls at your facility to prepare the system to flow data to EPA as the new federal rule mandates. To submit outfall information to DEQ: Go to the following website and enter the discharge outfall number, type of discharge, receiving water information, representative outfall status information, and other details no later than July 15, 2018. The website will walk you through all steps.
