EPA-finalized rule modernizes Clean Water Act reporting for municipalities, industries, and other facilities. It requires regulated entities and state and federal regulators to use existing, available information technology to electronically report data required by National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program instead of filing written paper reports. According to EPA estimates, full implementation in 46 states and Virgin Islands Territory will save ~$22.6 million each year.
