### Appendix A to Part 127 **[ DRAFT FOR SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE** 
**– REDLINE/STRIKEOUT VERSION**  **]** The following two tables identify the minimum set of data that states, tribes, territories, and NPDES
-regulated entities must electronically

report to the designated initial recipient (NPDES authorized program or EPA) [see 40 CFR 127.2(b)]. Use of these two tables ensure s that there is consistent and complete reporting nationwide, and expeditious collection and processing of the data, thereb y making it more accurate and timely. Taken together, these data standardizations and the corresponding electronic reporting requirements in 40 CFR 3, 1 22, 123, 127, 403, and 503 are designed to save the NPDES authorized programs considerable resources, make reporting easier for NPDES
-regulated entities, streamline permit renewals (as permit writers typically review previous noncompliance events during permit renewal), ensure full exchange of NPDES program data between states and EPA to the public, improve environmental decision
-making, and protect human health and the environment. **Instructions:** Table 1 provides the list of data sources and minimum submission frequencies for the ten different NPDES Data Groups. Table 2 provides the data that must be electronically reported for each of these NPDES Data Groups
. The use of each data element is determined b y identifying the number(s) in the column labeled “NPDES Data Group Number” in Table 2 and finding the corresponding “NPDES Data Group Number” in Tabl e 1. For example, a value of “ 1” in Table 2 means that this data element is required in the transmission of data from the NPDES program to EPA ( Core NPDES Permitting, Compliance, and Enforcement Data)
. Likewise, a value of “1 through 10 ” in Table 2 means that this data element is required in all ten NPDES data groups.Draft Deliberative Product Not for Release Outside of the Agency

**Note 1:** NPDES regulated entities regulated by a NPDES permit will comply with all reporting requirements in their respective NPDES permit. 2 **Note 2**  **:** Use the “NPDES Data Group Number” in this table and the “NPDES Data Group Number” column in Table 2 to identify the source of the required data entry . EPA notes that electronic systems may use additional data to facilitate electronic reporting as we ll as management and reporting of electronic data
. For example, NPDES permittees may be required to enter their NPDES permit number (“NPDES ID ”

– NPDES Data Group 1 and 2 ) into the applicable electronic reporting system in order to identify their permit and submit a Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR - NPDES Data Group 3 ). Additionally, NPDES regulated entities may be required to enter and submit data to update or correct erroneous data. For example, NPDES permittees may be required to enter new data regarding the Facility Individual First Name and Last Name (NPDES Data Group 1 and 2 ) with their DMR submission when there is a facility personnel change
. **Not e**  **3:** The applicable reporting frequency is specified in the NPDES permit or control mechanism, which may be more frequent than the minimum frequenc y specified in Table 1. **Note 4:**  NPDES regulated entities that have no historical record (e.g., “greenfield” facilities) do not need to provide data elements that rely on historical data elements
. For example, the following data element relies on historical data: Biosolids or Sewage Sludge Amount (Permit)
- The amount of biosolids (in dry metric tons) produced by the permitted facility in the preceding 365
- day period for each different type of biosolids and sewage sludge generated by the facility.Draft Deliberative Product Not for Release Outside of the Agency

No Exposure Certification Approval Date This is the date on which the No Exposure Certification (NEC) wa s authorized by the NPDES permitting authority
. Submiss ion of a No Exposure Certification means that the facility does not require NPDES permit authorization for its stormwater discharges due to the existence of a condition of “no exposure. ” A condition of no exposure exists at an industrial facility when all industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter to prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff. This date would be provided by the permitting authority. The date must be provided in YYYY MM -DD format where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, and DD is the day
