SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

As of January 15, 2016, air pollution sources covered by the FARR as provided in 40 CFR 49.138 may register and report emissions electronically.

How to Access the System: The FORS can be accessed at https://cdx.epa.gov. New users will need to register and select FORS as their program service. The EPA intends to provide training to affected entities on how to access, register and use the system.

How to Get Help Using the System: The EPA has provided the CDX user guide to each source currently registered under the FARR, and to tribal governments in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. That guide is available at http://yosemite.epa.gov/​R10/​tribal.nsf/​programs/​farr. The CDX Help Desk is available for technical support-related questions between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (ET) at 1-888-890-1995 or helpdesk@epacdx.net.

Confidential Business Information: Regulated entities may assert a business confidentiality claim covering any portion of the submitted information as provided in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Information claimed as confidential should be submitted on compact disk or flash drive and mailed to the FARR Registration Coordinator, EPA Region 10, AWT-150, 1200 Sixth Ave., Suite 900, Seattle, WA 98101. Confidential treatment is automatically forfeited for information submitted through the FORS. Note that emissions data and information necessary to determine emissions is not entitled to confidential treatment. Failure to assert a claim in the manner described in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B, allows the submitted information to be released to the public without further notice. Information subject to a business confidentiality claim may be disclosed by the EPA only to the extent set forth in the above-cited regulations.
