What Georgia asks for

Each point below is followed by the state's own words, so you can check it against the source.

How to file

E-Plan is required for all Tier II reporting; Georgia refuses reports by email or mail.

“Georgia requires the use of E-Plan for all Tier II related reporting.” source
“The State of Georgia does not accept Tier II reports via email or postal mail.” source

Fees

A $25 filing fee per facility, paid to the University of Texas at Dallas, which runs E-Plan, when you upload.

“The University of Texas at Dallas, administrators of the E-Plan website, will charge a $25.00 facility filing fee that is paid directly to UT at Dallas during the upload process at time of submission.” source

Who gets the report

A successful upload meets the state's requirements; local LEPCs and fire departments may have their own, so contact them.

“Once the upload is successful an e-mail confirmation will be sent and the State of Georgia reporting requirements have been fulfilled.” source
“Local LEPCs or Fire Departments may have reporting and notification requirements specific to their jurisdictions and they should be contacted individually for guidance.” source

The federal rule underneath

EPCRA section 312 applies to a facility that the OSHA HazCom Standard requires to keep an SDS for a hazardous chemical present at any one time at or above 10,000 lb, or at or above 500 lb or its threshold planning quantity, whichever is lower, for an extremely hazardous substance (40 CFR 370.10(a)). The report covers the previous calendar year and is due March 1 (40 CFR 370.45). Where Georgia's rules above are stricter, they apply on top.

The full federal picture, Tier I versus Tier II, counting and penalties, is on the EPCRA Tier II hub. The list that feeds it is the chemical inventory.

HazComFast keeps each jobsite's chemical quantities next to its safety data sheets and exports the Tier II data as an Excel workbook, a CSV file and a PDF summary.
