Those required to submit Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms must do so within 30 days of sampling.

Hazardous Waste: LQGs consolidating VSQG waste must also report consolidation activities. 

Universal Waste: Conduct training annually.  Confirm that storage times do not exceed one year.

Wastewater (NPDES/SDS): Discharge reports are required to be submitted at regular intervals, per permit requirements.

SPCC Plan: SPCC Plans must be updated every five years or whenever there is a change in oil storage or spill potential.  Conduct annual training and routine inspections as required.

Air Permits/Emission Inventories: Some permits may require more frequent reporting.  Certain deviations have immediate reporting obligations.
