SUBJECT: 	Listing of EPA's CROMERR Outreach Phone Call to States [DCN 0212]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      EPA has worked very closely with authorized NPDES programs to ensure that there is an orderly and measured transition from paper to electronic reporting. In particular, EPA has made calls to almost all of the authorized NPDES programs to assess their status with their electronic reporting systems and EPA's Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) requirements (40 CFR part 3). EPA's Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) provides the legal framework for electronic reporting under EPA's regulatory programs. CROMERR sets performance-based, technology-neutral system standards and provides a streamlined, uniform process for Agency review and approval of electronic reporting. 
      
      The following is list of dates when EPA held a teleconference with authorized NPDES programs to assess their compliance with CROMERR. EPA will continue to work collaboratively with authorized NPDES programs to ensure that they are ready for the deadlines in the NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule.
