How to Update Permit Data

Enter your stormwater permit number into the Stormwater Permit Summary Report and you will see a form that includes the address of the facility, contact information for the permit, and the regulated stormwater outfall(s) for the facility. See guidance below for updating the following:

• Facility/Company name or ownership, complete the Name/Ownership Change Form.
• Legally responsible person (Owner Affiliation), complete the Permit Contact Update Request Form.
• Delegation of Signature Authority (DOSA), complete the Permit Contact Update Request Form.
• Billing contact, complete the Permit Contact Update Request Form.
• Permit contact, complete the Permit Contact Update Request Form.
• Facility contact, complete the Permit Contact Update Request Form.
• Facility address only, email Joyce Sanford.

How to Submit Paper DMRs Before eDMR Registration is Completed:

• Download the applicable DMR from the NPDES Stormwater Industrial Individual website or the NPDES Stormwater General Permit website.
• Complete, sign, scan and upload the DMR to the NPDES Stormwater Permit Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Upload form within 30 days of receiving sampling results. Please remember that paper DMRs must have original wet-ink signatures per federal regulations (once you transition to eDMR, electronic signatures will be accepted).
• Mail the original, wet-ink signed hard copy of the DMR to the appropriate DEMLR Regional Office. 
• Do not send DMRs to Central Files in Raleigh! (This is a change from the previous procedure.)
• Be sure to check for the most recently updated DMR forms for your general permit.
