PERMIT UNIT DETAILS

• Mandatory Commercial Status field in PUNIT_DETAIL table.

– Default value = 0 (Does not accept waste from offsite generators).

– Values 1, 2, and 3 as currently defined.

• Add a new unit with Legal Status IS, comment required to justify IS designation.

of 30

Mandatory Linking

• Add Unit/Unit Details through series/event --no longer through Unit/Unit Detail menu

• Link each unit detail to 1 or more events --editing orphan unit or detail record requires linking to event.

• Maintain unit detail history -- must enter NEW unit detail record to change LE/OP status.

• New audit table -- capture deleted unit detail info: handler id, unit sequence, unit detail sequence, LE/OP status, user id, deletion date, and reason for deletion.

Permit Schedule Event Trigger Report: lists initial permit event along side future schedule event & notes where expected future schedule event has not been entered.

Report Name /Description

Future Schedule Triggers implemented through a data quality report which identifies data meeting the trigger requirements.

Method of Implementation

To specify a timeline for next anticipated submittal or permitting event; activated following entry of an event reflecting approval of a submittal.

Purpose

Future Schedule Trigger

of 30

Permit Progress and Data Gaps Report, shows progress of individual facilities by indicating the presence or absence of nationally required operating / closure / post-closure track events based on the permit progress universe


Data Gap Triggers implemented through data quality report which identifies data meeting the trigger requirements.


Applies to nationally required event codes & assists the user in identifying potential gaps in data.

Purpose

Data Gap Triggers

of 30

Event - Legal & Operating Status Report shows units with legal-operating status codes which do not agree with linked trigger events.

Legal and Operating Status - Event Report identifies process units where the current legal/operating status may not be supported by a related permit event linked to the unit.


Status Triggers implemented with a data quality report; a second report evaluates LE/OP status codes which may signify a change in event.


Activated by specific event which may signify change in the legal status and/or operating status for the regulated unit.

Purpose

Status Triggers

of 30

General Triggers – Permittinganyone used these?

prompts user to change operating status to SF for a regulated unit with a linked CA210SF event code.

update unit capacity to “permitted capacity”when the facility/unit is permitted, as indicated by OP200 or PI legal status code.

Purpose

Pop-up window appears reminding the user to create a new unit detail with SF Operating Status.

SF

. Pop-up window reminds user -- capacity type should be “Permitted Capacity” if the capacity specified is not “Permitted” or blank.
