U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Annual Noncompliance Report (ANCR): A State by State Summary of Violations and Enforcement Response at Smaller Clean Water Act Dischargers under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program. Calendar Year 2009

摘要

This Annual Noncompliance Report (ANCR), as required by federal regulation (40 CFR 123.45(c)), consists of summary information that States are required to provide annually to EPA regarding the noncompliance status of non-major National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permittees (i.e., the smaller facilities and sites not considered to be major dischargers of wastewater or stormwater). These ANCR data are not facility-specific but do provide counts for each State of the number of non-major facilities that were reviewed, had violations, and were enforced against. EPA has recently released comparable information about major facilities on the Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) website. The ANCR information for calendar year 2009 was compiled by EPA from the NPDES information provided by the States.
