Combined Environmental Regulatory Information System – North Dakota (CERIS-ND)
The Combined Environmental Regulatory Information System
– North Dakota (CERIS-ND) is an online portal for the
regulated
community for permitting, licensing, reporting and notifications. CERIS-ND makes environmental compliance
permitting
and reporting easier and it allows environmental records to be open to the
regulated
community and public, increasing transparency. CERIS-ND includes:
- E-Permitting & Licensing
- Electronic reporting and notifications
- Data hub for public transparency
The North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality is transitioning some programs to CERIS-ND. Currently
the
Division of Air Quality and the Division of Water Quality’s North Dakota Pollutant Discharge
Elimination
System (NDPDES) permits program are utilizing CERIS-ND. All Air Quality regulated entities are required to
submit
using CERIS-ND. All NDPDES regulated entities are required to submit using CERIS-ND unless a temporary
waiver has
been obtained.
