Louisiana is working to correct this information. <em>(Updated February 2018)</em></td></tr><tr><th>New Mexico</th><td>New Mexico is conducting ongoing review and research concerning resolution of errors resulting in incorrect FCE due dates. New Mexico will calculate FCE due dates and frequencies using the applicable CMS schedule based on the most recent FCE date and current facility classification until the problem is resolved. (Updated June 2022)</td></tr><tr><th>New York</th><td>ECHO provides a listing of Full Compliance Evaluations (FCEs) under the CAA program. Normally an FCE consists of an on-site inspection preceded by a preparatory review of other compliance information that is submitted by the facility. While many states report FCEs on an ongoing basis as they are completed throughout the year, some states report all or most of their completed FCEs at the end of the fiscal year. NY reports the majority of its FCEs toward the end of the fiscal year. This is allowable under EPA policy, so does not indicate a data problem. However, when looking at facility reports for facilities in this state, keep in mind that on-site inspections may have been conducted, but may not have been reported to the national database yet. <em>(Updated March 2020)</em></td></tr><tr><th>Pennsylvania</th><td><span>PA DEP suffered a data transfer issue on December 5, 2023, which resulted in the deletion of CAA data shared with EPA. Data impacted include CAA enforcement and compliance activities, case file, and case file linkage data for activities taking place in Federal FY2023 and before. This is currently being remedied, but users should verify with PA DEP before using it for any intended purpose.

The rule requires authorized states and EPA Regions to share basic information regarding enforcement actions. This includes the type of enforcement action, information specific to final orders (administrative or judicial), penalty information, information regarding permit schedules or compliance schedules, and information regarding milestones or sub-activities identified in permit schedules or compliance schedules. States are now working to improve this data sharing with EPA. <em>(Updated February 2018)</em></p><p><em>Single-Event Violations</em> - Single-Event Violations (SEVs) include one-time events as well as violations with longer durations. These are violations that are generally not automatically flagged by the data system (e.g., inspection identified violations, sewer overflow, spill of industrial waste, discharges without a NPDES permit). These violation determinations are often manually generated by the authorized NPDES program, as opposed to violations that can be system created or generated (e.g., effluent exceedances of permit limits are automatically flagged by ICIS-NPDES). The 2015 NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule (40 CFR 127) requires authorized states and EPA Regions to share SEV data on all facilities (major and non-major). However, this requirement does not include SEV data generated from construction stormwater inspections where the regulatory authority did not take a formal enforcement action. As noted in preamble to the final rule, EPA made this distinction based on the large number of facilities in this segment of the NPDES universe (approximately 200,000 new construction sites each year). See 22 October 2015; 80 FR 64079. Prior to the NPDES eRule, states only had to share data on SEVs from majors. Historically, SEV data sharing varies widely by state. States are now working to improve this data sharing with EPA. <em>(Updated February 2018)</em></p><p><em>Effluent Exceedance Violation</em> - For effluent violations on Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs), the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Integrated Compliance and Information System (ICIS-NPDES) determines effluent exceedance violations and calculates the percent the DMR reported value exceeded the permit limit. At times, the percent exceedance calculated is 2,147,483,650 or 99,999 percent but the Detailed Facility Report will display "LIMIT VIOLATION" because these values are not representative of the actual measured percent exceedance and should not be interpreted this way. These data no longer appear on ECHO reports; users of the full downloadable datasets should be aware of this issue. <em>(Updated December 2018)</em></p><p><em>Locational Information</em> - The <a href="https://echo.epa.gov/system/files/latlongmissing.pdf" target="_blank">NPDES Missing Lat/Long (PDF)</a> <span class="fileinfo">(1 pp, 48K, </span><a href="http://www.epa.gov/home/pdf-files"><span class="fileinfo">About PDF</span> </a><span class="fileinfo">)</span> table provides state-by-state percentages of missing lat/long data for individual non-major facilities and outfalls. Without this locational information, 303d Listed Impaired Waters analysis cannot be done. <em>(Updated February 2018)</em></p><p><em>Universe Data</em> - The 2015 NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule (40 CFR 127) requires authorized states and EPA Regions to share basic facility information on all NPDES-permitted facilities. This data sharing is being phased in over time. In particular, states have until December 2025 to start collecting and sharing data on general permit covered facilities with EPA. During this implementation period, EPA’s national NPDES data system (ICIS-NPDES) will not have data on the entire universe of NPDES regulated facilities. <em>(Updated April 2022)</em></p><p><u>NPDES Noncompliance Report (NNCR)</u></p><p><em>DMR Reporting Violation (violation detection codes) - </em>When toxicity parameters are reported to the data system under a different permitted feature than non-toxicity parameters (e.g., 001 and TX1), it is not possible to accurately detect DMR reporting violations. The evaluation for an entire DMR form missing is based on the permitted feature number and situations where all DMR values for a permitted feature are not reported under the same permitted feature, correct evaluation for an entire or partial DMR form missing must be confirmed manually. This affects the detection descriptions DMR Reporting (Entire) - No Data, DMR Report (Entire) - NODI, DMR Reporting (Partial) - No Data, and DMR Reporting (Partial) - NODI. (Updated February 2023)</p><p>For FY2021Q1, effluent violations can have a detection date after the resolution date. For example, an effluent exceedance violations with a monitoring period end date of October 2020 has a detection date of 12/31/20. If the violation is linked to a formal enforcement action with a compliance schedule that has a NPDES Closed Date in November 2020, the resolution date (November 2020) is before the resolution date (December 2020). (Updated February 2023)</p></td></tr><tr><th scope="col">Arizona</th><td><span class="warning">Primary Data Alert:</span> Due to data migration issues between Arizona’s water quality compliance tracking database and EPA’s program data system (ICIS-NPDES), there may be data quality errors between November 2012 and July 2015. If you feel the compliance data is in error, please contact ADEQ at 602-771-4623. <em>(Updated January 2017)</em></td></tr><tr><th scope="col">Delaware</th><td><p>Delaware has two facilities that still have the issue outlined below (parameter code 82581 and 82582). Delaware is working to resolve the issue but has not indicated a timetable.</p><p>In some EPA region 3 states (Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia), some pH violations are in error. In certain permits, there are three different pH parameters used to express the pH limitation:</p><ol><li>parameter code 00400- pH with a limit of 6.0 to 9.0 standard units;</li><li>parameter code 82581- number of excursions greater than 60 minutes at any time;</li><li>parameter code 82582 - total minutes that exceed 446 minutes for a month.</li></ol><p>These three pH parameters are used when continuous pH monitoring is required in a permit and are allowed as per 40 CFR 401.17, which states:</p><blockquote><p>"...excursions from the range (6.0 - 9.0) are permitted subject to the following limitations: 1) the total time during which the pH values are outside the required range of pH values shall not exceed 7 hours and 26 minutes (446 minutes) in any calendar month (parameter code 82582); 2) no individual excursion from the range of pH values shall exceed 60 minutes (parameter code 82581)."</p></blockquote><p>The pH limit of 6.0 to 9.0 can be exceeded in an effluent without violating the permit if it is not outside the range for more than 60 minutes at any one time or if the total minutes it is outside the range does not exceed seven hours and 26 minutes for the month. When the pH data from a facility's discharge monitoring report is entered in EPA's Permit Compliance System (PCS), the actual pH value is entered, which may be outside the permitted range. As stated above, however, it may not be a permit violation, and PCS does not take this into account. ECHO displays PCS data and may indicate pH violations that were not violations. These data no longer appear on ECHO reports; users of the full downloadable datasets should be aware of this issue. <em>(Updated March 2020)</em></p></td></tr><tr><th>Georgia<a id="GA" name="GA"> </a></th><td>Georgia’s CWA data in ECHO has data quality problems related to industrial stormwater, causing some facilities to be flagged incorrectly as Significant/Reportable Noncompliers (SNC or RNC). Users searching<a href="https://echo.epa.gov/facilities/facility-search?mediaSelected=msgp"> ECHO’s Industrial Stormwater Facility Search</a> for information on industrial stormwater facilities in Georgia should verify data results with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division before using it for any intended purpose. (March 2024)</td></tr><tr><th scope="col">Indiana</th><td>The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) strives to ensure the NPDES monitoring results posted to ECHO are accurate, and IDEM works diligently to verify the results, but reporting irregularities and identified non-receipt violations often take additional time to research. IDEM continuously reviews these types of data irregularities to verify their accuracy and when appropriate contacts the NPDES permit holders to obtain revised results. The delay in getting these results posted to ECHO may at times cause non-receipt, compliance schedule milestone, and to a lesser extent, effluent exceedance violations to appear when they may not be entirely accurate. Indiana issued a NPDES general permit that covers construction stormwater operators on December 18, 2021. Prior to this date, IDEM identified over 8,000 construction stormwater permits as individual NPDES permits in EPA's national NPDES data system, which supplies data to ECHO. IDEM is steadily terminating these individual NPDES permit records in EPA's national NPDES data system as they provide coverage under the December 2021 NPDES general permit. IDEM estimates that over the next five years all of the 8,000 individual NPDES permit records in EPA's national NPDES data system will be terminated with some records replaced by coverages under the December 2021 NPDES general permit. (Updated June 2022)</td></tr><tr><th scope="col">Iowa</th><td><p>The Iowa Department of Natural Resources continues to work with EPA to address issues with the transfer of data from the state system to ICIS-NPDES. Due to these data transfer issues, the facility compliance status in ECHO may not be accurate. Specifically, facilities may erroneously appear to be in significant noncompliance for failure to submit DMRs or failure to meet compliance schedule milestones. ECHO users are encouraged to contact the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to verify the compliance status of a facility prior to taking action based upon the data obtained from ECHO. <em>(Updated September 2020)</em></p><p>Iowa currently has missing data identified on the e-reporting dashboard.  However, most of this data is not missing, rather it is the result of challenges with synchronizations of data between Iowa's NPDES permitting system and ICIS-NPDES.  As Iowa works through the system changes necessary to accommodate the eReporting rule implementation, accurate reporting to eliminate the missing data is expected to be addressed. (Last updated: August 5, 2021)</p><p>Iowa currently has not identified most of the combined sewer overflow outfalls that they permit in EPA's ICIS-NPDES. This means that these outfalls are not included in the <a href="https://echo.epa.gov/tools/data-downloads#downloads">National Combined Sewer Overflow Inventory</a>.

This activity status is determined from the information most recently submitted by a site's representative or determined by EPA or state authority. Also, some states are still working to establish their inactive universes. Therefore, some sites shown to be "active" may not be actively managing waste.
