What’s new in RADIUS 4.0 and NJDEP Online Technology for submission
Why Update RADIUS? • Provide a mechanism to submit RADIUS files online • Automate the creation of assessments/bills and allow regulated entities to pay online • To make the RADIUS file submission process compliant with CROMERR for permits and emission statements
What is CROMERR? • Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Regulation (CROMERR) • USEPA regulation designed to improve data and maintain corporate and individual responsibility and accountability for electronic reports and records • Only affects Federal programs that EPA has delegated the State to administer • Operating Permit (major source) applications are subject to CROMERR • Preconstruction Permit (minor source) applications are not
RADIUS 4.0 Updates • Removed electronic PIN certification capability within RADIUS (this functionality is in the NJDEP Online Services Portal) • Removed the ability within RADIUS to attach electronic documents (this functionality is in the NJDEP Online Services Portal) • Removed most of administrative check functions for permits • Added functionality for RADIUS to generate a PDF document containing all the information entered • however users will only be able to access this PDF via the Portal
NJDEP Online Services Portal • Only RADIUS 4.0.09 documents can be used for a Portal submission • Will allow authorized users within a facility to submit applications for permits and emission statements in a secure manner • Users will still be able to mail a copy of the RADIUS application via the USPS • Users will be able to attach electronic documents to supplement the RADIUS file
NJDEP Online Service Portal • Users will be able to view all of the information in the RADIUS application as a PDF via the Portal • PDF will be available after application is submitted • Users will be able to electronically certify a RADIUS submission • The Portal will calculate appropriate fees and allow users to make electronic payments • Not all applications can be paid online • Emission Statements & Operating Permit modifications cannot be paid online
NJDEP Online Services Portal • If you have submitted an Air General Permit, then you have used the Portal • The screens have the same feel as the General Permits, and payment process is the same • The following is a quick and basic tour of an online RADIUS submittal • Will not view payment screens as a part of this tour because those screens have not changed from General Permits
