Ohio EPA Announces New Reporting Software Coming March 3, 2008

Ohio EPA’s eBusiness Center is a new, secure portal for online business services. This portal is the entry point for the regulated community and consultants to electronically complete and file reports and permit applications and to pay fees. Authorized users will be able to update their facility and contact information directly.

The eBusiness Center will initially offer capabilities for wastewater discharge monitoring reports.  Over the next several months, Ohio EPA will add services related to air pollution, drinking water and solid waste. All services will be accessed through Ohio EPA’s eBusiness Center at ebiz.epa.ohio.gov.

On March 3, 2008 the Ohio EPA, Division of Air Pollution Control (DAPC) will make a new service available on the Agency's eBusiness Center called "Air Services". This Web-based software will replace the functionality of the existing STARShip software. The new system will enable online submittal of permit applications, annual emission reports, annual compliance certifications, and quarterly and semiannual monitoring reports.

Due to this new system, OEPA is extending the emission reporting deadline from April 15 to June 6.  They will revert back to the 4/15 deadline in 2009.  More information can be found at www.epa.state.oh.us/dapc/airservices.
