EPA Training

EPA training is conducted via web conference only.  These trainings provide permittees and data providers with an overview of the NetDMR application which will enable the online submission of Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs). Live webinar classes are scheduled periodically. A recording of the webinar is also available online for downloading and viewing.

Please check the EPA training website for additional information and resources (https://usepa.servicenowservices.com/oeca_icis?id=netdmr_homepage).
