each FFY. The inspection plan will clearly outline how the state is complying with the provisions of
the CMS, including a detailed description of:
-The universe of facilities in each NPDES program area (including facility sub-categories determined
by the state) subject to CMS metrics;
-Goal numbers of inspections for each NPDES program area (including facility sub-categories
determined by the state) as identified in the CMS;
-The number of inspections planned for each NPDES program area (including facility sub-categories

-Consideration of any EPA National Compliance Initiatives in the inspection plan; and
-If inspections planned do not meet goal numbers of inspections for any NPDES program area as
identified in the CMS, an explanation of the alternative approach proposed, including rationale for
any deviations and tradeoffs, a description of the affected regulated facility universes, and an
explanation of how the state has determined that reduced or modified attention at certain facilities
will not result in negative public health or environmental impacts.

For each FFY, the EPA may determine the number of inspections conducted by the state in each
NPDES program area (including facility sub-categories determined by the state) as outlined in the
state's inspection plan, as well as the number of enforcement activities concluded by the state. The
EPA will initiate this review via email to the state after data in ICIS for the subject FFY is frozen
(usually in Q2 or Q3 of the FFY following the review year). In the form of ICIS reports, Excel
spreadsheets, or any other format agreeable to the state and the EPA, the state will provide a list of
inspections performed for each inspection category outlined in the state's inspection plan, and
enforcement actions concluded, with accompanying minimum data elements requested by the EPA
(e.g. inspection date, facility type, inspection type, enforcement action date, penalty collection data,
penalty amount, etc.).
FY25 through FY26 Joint Status Comment Required
• The state will continue to implement its Enforcement Management System (EMS).
• The state may submit an updated draft EMS to the EPA for review. While the EPA does not
approve state EMSs, the EPA will review and provide comments on any draft EMS within 45 days of
submittal.
• The state will take timely and appropriate enforcement against major facilities in Significant Non-
Compliance.
• The state will incorporate approved compliance schedules and deadlines into enforcement actions
such that these schedules and deadlines are enforceable under the enforcement action or other
applicable state law.
• The state will submit to the EPA appropriate enforcement documents and supporting
