How to Submit the ACC and SAMR
Online submittal through eEEC eForms (Form ID 34: DAQ Field Operations Branch Electronic Submittal) is preferred and recommended to avoid late reporting for both the ACC and SAMR. Submissions should be signed by the Responsible Official, as defined under 401 KAR 52:001(62).
For help with EEC eForms:
Reports may still be mailed to the regional office listed on the first page of your permit. However, the term “postmarked" is no longer applicable to air permit reporting. Mailed reports must be received by the regional office by the reporting deadline to avoid being considered late. Reports postmarked on January 30ᵗʰ (or June 30th for SAMR) will be regarded as late unless they are also received by the office on those dates.
Note: Documents submitted to EEC eForms are not sent to the EPA. If your facility is required to report directly to the EPA, use their online submittal tool, CEDRI, or mail a hard copy to: United States Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 Air Enforcement Branch, Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street, SW Atlanta, GA 30303-8960.
Obtain Past Submittals
To request copies of previous ACC or SAMR reports: Contact your DAQ Regional Office to request courtesy copies or submit an Open Records Request to eec.kora@ky.gov. Include your facility name, permit number, and reporting year(s).
The person who submitted the air permit required reports through EEC eForms in previous years can obtain copies of their past submittals by logging into eForms, then navigating to "My Completed eForms" on their EEC eForms dashboard to download a copy of past submittals.
How to Change the Air Permit Contact for a Facility
If the air permit contact person for your facility has changed, please email Samantha.Hoffman@ky.gov to update this information.
An air permit contact cannot be a third-party consultant. Updating the contact information on the DEP 7007CC form does not update the contact information in our database. The Division of Water and Waste Management must be contacted separately to update contacts in their systems.
How to Remove Emission Points or Rescind an Air Permit
Facilities that remove one or more emission point(s) -- or all permitted equipment -- must continue submitting required reports as long as a DAQ permit remains active. If your facility plans to permanently discontinue these operations, it may be beneficial to update your permit rather than wait until the next renewal period to notify DAQ. For guidance on how to update your permit, contact ECAP at envhelp@ky.gov.
