Electronic Signature Agreement
Federal regulations require that electronic documents must have valid electronic signatures if Title 40 of
the Code of Federal Regulations requires handwritten signatures on the paper documents they replace.
Valid electronic signature refers to an electronic signature on an electronic document that has been
created with an electronic signature credential.
This Electronic Signature Agreement, when finalized and approved, will allow the individuals with
electronic signature credentials to sign electronically a variety of required permit documents in lieu of the
submittal of signed paper copies. The submittal of Electronic Discharge Monitoring Reports (eDMR)
will be available once your electronic signature credentials are in place. Some agreements for document
submittals or acceptance, as noted in the Agreement Conditions (Section B.), are not currently available
electronically but are included here to have the agreements in place and to avoid the need to complete
future submittal of agreement forms when these systems are initiated.
