The E2 DMR systems provides wastewater facilities with an alternative way to submit DMR data and allow the MDEQ to electronically validate the data, acknowledge receipt, and upload data to Michigan's central wastewater database.

Implementing this new system will reach the goal of improving the management of data associated with the Department's wastewater monitoring program. The E2 system will:

• Save wastewater treatment facilities compliance costs with a streamlined reporting method and readily available computer tools.
   
• Save programmatic costs by reducing resources required for managing paper-based DMR reports.
   
• Improve the accuracy of compliance data by eliminating potential errors that will be otherwise introduced through manual data entry.
   
• Improve the state wastewater discharge treatment programs' overall effectiveness while offering alternatives for less process to the regulated community.

Part 31 of Act 451 of 1994, as amended, specifically Section 324.3110(3) and Rule 323.2155(2) of Part 21 allows the department to specify the forms to be utilized for reporting the required self-monitoring data.  Unless instructed on the effluent limitations page to conduct "Retained Self Monitoring" the permittee shall submit self-monitoring data via the Michigan DEQ Electronic Environmental Discharge Monitoring Reporting (e2-DMR) system.

The permittee shall utilize the information provided on the e2-Reporting website @ http://secure1.state.mi.us/e2rs/to access and submit the electronic forms.  Both monthly summary and daily data shall be submitted to the department no later than the 20th day of the month following each month of the authorized discharge period(s).
