50 Days: SARA 312 Tier 2 Training is Good!
EGLE SARA 312 Tier 2 Training starts tomorrow, sessions are Jan 12, Jan 19, and Jan 26, 2022
Michigan EGLE (Environment, Great Lakes and Energy, formerly the Department of Environmental Quality DEQ) announces SARA (Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act) Title III
Jan 12 session: who needs to report
Jan 19 session: “nuts and bolts” about requirements: threshold determinations, exemptions, etc.
Jan 26 session: using the software to submit your report
Jan 12, 2022 is 48 days and counting down to the March 1 deadline for the SARA 312 Tier 2 report.
By now, if you started January 1 (which I highly recommended, check out my blog posts so far) you should be starting to realize the things you don’t know and the questions you have.
I searched for other training resources, didn’t find many:
Indiana has a webinar that was posted Dec 2021 but it’s not live:
Perfectly timed and in a format where you will be able to ask questions are the Environment, Great Lakes and Energy EGLE webinars about this process. It’s Michigan-specific but since Michigan is based on Federal (EPA) requirements, your jurisdiction may be a little more restrictive or have a slightly different format or lower thresholds, but it should be pretty close.
Registration fee for the EGLE training session of $25 covers all 3 sessions. I have attended these sessions in the past, they are excellent, and a great refresher (even if you’re not in Michigan, the requirements in other states will be generally similar).
SESSION 1 - January 12, 9:00 - 11:00 AM Decoding SARA Title III Requirements that May Apply to Your Facility
SESSION 2 - January 19, 9:00 - 10:30 AM Drilling Down: Tier II Reporting Requirements in Michigan
SESSION 3 - January 26, 9:00 - 10:30 AM Navigating the Online Tier II Manager Program and Frequently Asked Questions
More on these reports and their requirements in the upcoming weeks.
