SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media
Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) was published in the Federal
Register (70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of title 40 of the CFR.
CROMERR establishes electronic reporting as an acceptable regulatory
alternative to paper reporting and establishes requirements to assure
that electronic documents are as legally dependable as their paper
counterparts. Subpart D of CROMERR requires that state, tribal or local
government agencies that receive, or wish to begin receiving,
electronic reports under their EPA-authorized programs must apply to
EPA for a revision or modification of those programs and obtain EPA
approval. Subpart D provides standards for such approvals based on
consideration of the electronic document receiving systems that the
state, tribe, or local government will use to implement the electronic
reporting. Additionally, Sec. 3.1000(b) through (e) of 40 CFR part 3,
subpart D provides special procedures for program revisions and
modifications to allow electronic reporting, to be used at the option
of the state, tribe or local government in place of procedures
available under existing program-specific authorization regulations. An
application submitted under the subpart D procedures must show that the
state, tribe or local government has sufficient legal authority to
implement the electronic reporting components of the programs covered
by the application and will use electronic document receiving systems
that meet the applicable subpart D requirements.
On October 18,2022, the Michigan Environment Great Lakes, & Energy
(EGLE) submitted an application titled MiEnviro Portal system for
revisions/modifications to its EPA-approved programs under title 40 CFR
to allow new electronic reporting. EPA reviewed EGLE's request to
revise/modify its EPA-authorized programs and, based on
[[Page 79310]]
this review, EPA determined that the application met the standards for
approval of authorized program revisions/modifications set out in 40
CFR part 3, subpart D. In accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this notice
of EPA's decision to approve EGLE's request to revise/modify its
following EPA-authorized programs to allow electronic reporting under
