Compliance Monitoring and the Integrated Compliance Information System Getting the most out of ICIS 2/2007 NPDES Inspector Workshop 2 Topics Background Current users Future Users Using ICIS Today Why using ICIS is so important to NPDES Inspectors 3 Background: ICIS Phases and Delivery Time Frames Background: ICIS Phases and Delivery Time Frames Modernized Permit Compliance System (PCS) Direct user release implemented June/August 2006 Air Facility System (AFS) Interface with Facility Registry System (FRS) Federal Enforcement Docket System Phase I Phase II Phase III / Regional Tracking Systems Completed and Launched June 2002 Interface with Data Integration Tools (e.g., IDEA ) 4 PCS Modernization Direct User Release Completed in FY2006 On June 23, 2006, the new system, the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS 2.0) was released. ICIS is one system, but has two components: ICIS-NPDES supports the implementation and management of the NPDES permitting and compliance enforcement program in EPA and states. Direct Users: 21 States, 2 Tribes, and 9 territories are now using ICIS-NPDES instead of PCS as well as EPA. ICIS-FE&C - supports the Federal Enforcement and Compliance component of EPAs civil enforcement and compliance program. 5 Current ICIS-NPDES Direct Users States, Tribes, Territories Directly Using ICIS-NPDES Region 1RI, MA*, NH*, CT, GB Region 2PR*, VI, NY, AT, SR Region 3MD, DC, PA Region 4GA Region 5IN Region 6NM Region 7NE Region 8UT, MT, SD Region 9HI, NV, NN, AS, CZ, MP, TT, GU, JA, MW Region 10ID*, AK* *State government not approved for the NPDES program; implemented by EPA Region. Italics Tribe or Territory. ^ State may really become direct users since do DMR batch via PCS desktop utility. 6 Future Users: ICIS-NPDES *Batch Release 3-Part Batch Release Approach: Part 1: DMR flows from state systems to ICIS- NPDES from hybrid states. Hybrid States are states that batch their DMR data and direct enter all their other data into Permit Compliance System Part 2: DMR flows from facilities in direct user states (NetDMR) to ICIS-NPDES. All States currently using ICIS-NPDES Part 3: All other non-DMR flows for full batch states. *Batch - users who will transfer data electronically 7 Future Users State Status in the PCS Modernization Process Hybrid Batch States Full Batch States Region 1VT Region 2NJ Region 3VA, DE, WV Region 4TNAL, KY, MS, NC, SC, FL Region 5IL, MI, WIMN, OH Region 6AR, OK^, TX, Gulf of MexicoLA Region 7IA, KS, MO Region 8COND, WY Region 9CAAZ Region 10WA, OR *State government not approved for the NPDES program; implemented by EPA Region.
