Common use of Electronic Reporting Solution Clause in Contracts

Electronic Reporting Solution. Post Deployment i. Work with DNREC to develop a schedule for deployment in line with DNREC’s permitting schedule (e.g., to have NeT available prior to the effective date of the general permit) and resource availability. ii. Assign appropriate resources to meet the agreed upon deployment schedule. If U.S. EPA will be unable to meet the scheduled deployment date, DNREC will be notified at least sixty days prior to the scheduled deployment date, or, if sixty days notice is not practicable an alternative schedule will be proposed as soon as practicable. U.S. EPA will work with DNREC to finalize any alternative deployment schedules. iii. Work with DNREC staff to develop a testing protocol, which will clearly identify any user acceptance criteria, the schedule for testing, how to test, and how to provide feedback to the U.S. EPA. At times, testing may occur concurrently with the tool development. iv. Inform DNREC of any contingency plan in place to ensure regular and continuous operation of the electronic reporting solution. The contingency plan will address scenarios that could result in a disruption of operations. It can be expected that the plan will include notification, recovery and reconstitution phases. v. Secure the integrity of the electronic reporting tool through the maintenance of a firewall. vi. Ensure access to any Copy of Record (COR). According to 40 CFR § 3.3, a COR is a true and correct copy of an electronic document received by an electronic document receiving system, which can be viewed in a human-readable format that clearly and accurately associates all the information provided in the electronic document with descriptions or labeling of the information. vii. Provide a notice on the U.S. EPA’s NPDES eReporting web page acknowledging this partnership between U.S. EPA and DNREC to provide electronic reporting services.
