Background and Information


   All manufacturers are required to submit reports to the United States Environmental Protection
   Agency (EPA) describing emission-related defects and plans for remediation of indicated
   defects to the EPA according to the regulations in 40 CFR §85.1903 and §85.1904,
   respectively. This document describes the general process for submitting electronic versions of
   Emissions Defect Information Reports (EDIR), Voluntary Emission Recall Reports (VERR), and
   VERR  Quarterly Progress Reports (QR)  to the Verify Document Module.

   Previously, manufacturers submitted  EDIRs, VERRs, and QRs to EPA in hard-copy form via
   regular mail delivery or in various electronic files via e-mail.  EPA is moving away from these
   practices and, as a result, is automating  the EDIR/VERR process and implementing an
   electronic method for collecting EDIR/VERR information.

   EPA has coordinated with the manufacturers to develop portable document format (PDF) forms
   using the Adobe Acrobat platform to electronically organize/assemble the EDIR, VERR, and QR
   information outlined in the regulations above.  Manufacturers will be able to download blank
   versions of the forms and store them  on  their computer systems for data entry. Once data entry
   is complete, the manufacturer can submit the completed forms to EPA using the Document
   Module of the Verify data management system for EPA review and follow-up.

   Once implemented, this new process will:

      •   Streamline the EDIR/VERR Process while leveraging existing computer systems to
          achieve process automation;
      •   Reduce manufacturer EDIR/VERR submission  burden;
      •   Reduce EPA EDIR/VERR review burden;
      •   Provide a  standardized template  to ensure consistent, complete EDIR/VERR
          information.


   As a user of the new EDIR/VERR system, it is important that you understand the process and
   functions of the system. Therefore, this  document provides step-by-step instructions on how to
   obtain  and enter information into the EDIR/VERR system forms, how to submit the forms to EPA
   using the Verify Document Module, and  how to check the status of a submitted document using
   the Verify System inbox provided to Verify users.  This step-by-step guide can be downloaded
   from the Verify webpage' "Publications"  link at http://epastaqe.epa.qov/otaq/verify/index.htm.
   An overview of the EDIR/VERR System  architecture is also provided on this webpage.


Contact Information

   If you have questions or concerns regarding user accounts and access to the EDIR/VERR
   system you can contact the Verify Help Desk at 1-888-890-1995 and/or verifyhelp@csc.com.

   For general questions regarding the EDIR/VERR System, please contact Arvon L. Mitcham
   (734.214.4522, mitcham.arvon@epa.gov) or Line Wehrly (734.214.4286, wehrly.linc@epa.gov),
   manager of the Light-Duty Vehicle Group (LDVG), and he can direct you to a member of his
   staff.

Step 4: Instructions for Entering Information in the Verify Document Module

   1.  EPA Manufacturer Code: This field will be auto-populated based on the
      manufacturer code you entered during the CDX registration process.

   2.  Document Path and File Name:  You can type in the filename or you can select
      "Browse" and locate the file on your computer. The file uploaded from the
      submitter's workstation must be saved according to the naming convention
      described in Appendix III. You should also refer to the Appendix III naming
      convention for other EDIR/VERR attachments.

   3.  Industry: Select an industry from the pull-down menu.  In the rare case that the
      EDIR/VERR you are submitting applies to multiple industries, you can select multiple
      industries by holding down "Ctrl" on your keyboard  and left  click your mouse on each
      of the applicable industries.

         a.  For Light-Duty manufacturers, you can simply select "Light-Duty Vehicle &
            Truck" (If you are an ICI or alternate fuel converter, there appropriate choices
            for your industry as well).
         b.  For Heavy-Duty manufacturers, you can select one or more of the following
            industries as appropriate:
               i. Complete Heavy-Duty Highway Vehicle;
               ii. Heavy-Duty Highway Spark Ignited;
               iii. Heavy-Duty Highway Compression Ignited.

   4.  Compliance Document Type:  Within the pull-down  menu, there are several
      options depending on the type of document you are submitting (e.g. report or
      attachments).  Below are the different options for entering data in this field.  From
      the pull-down menu, select either:

         a.  "Defect Report (Report)" for submitting a defect report (EDIR);
         b.  "Voluntary Emission Recall Report (Report)" for submitting a voluntary
            emission recall  report (VERR) or a VERR quarterly update report (QR);

            DO NOT SELECT THE "VERR QUARTERLY UPDATE" OPTION!  This will
            be handled under the subsequent field, "General Document Type"; or

         c.  "Other" for an EDIRA/ERR/QR Attachment.  A  text box will appear titled
            "Compliance Document Type, if "Other"" that you are required to enter data in
            since you selected "Other".  In this text box, you should indicate the
            applicable report number and what type of report (e.g., EDIR/VERR/QR) this
            attachment applies to (e.g., "3522 - EDIR attachment" or "0021 - VR
            attachment").

   5.  Compliance Document Topic:  Data can only be entered  in this field when you
      have selected "Defect Report (Report)" or "Voluntary  Emission Recall Report
      (Report)" for "Compliance Document Type" (see paragraph 4c above). Below are
      the different options for entering data in this field. Depending on the type of report
      you are submitting, you should select:

-------
      a.  "Initial Report" or "Follow-up Report" for submitting an EDIR, depending on
         whether you are submitting it for the first time or are correcting/updating an
         existing EDIR, respectively;
      b.  "Notification of Voluntary Recall" or "Follow-up Report" for submitting a VERR,
         depending on whether you are submitting it for the first time or are
         correcting/updating an existing VERR, respectively;
      c.  "Quarterly Update Report" for submitting a QR for reporting the progress of
         the VERR;

         DO NOT SELECT THE  "REMEDIAL PLANS" OPTION! The VERR includes
         the information that constitutes a remedial plan and, therefore, this option is
         not necessary.

6.  General Document Type: Data can only be entered in this field when you have
   selected "Other" for "Compliance Document Type" (see paragraph 4c above).
   Select the appropriate entry from the pull-down menu.

7.  Confidentiality Status:
      a.  Manufacturers should only include non-confidential business  information
         (non-CBI) in the report form(s) and  select Freedom of Information Act or
         "FOIA" in this field.
      b.  If it is necessary to  include CBI in the forms, you should submit the CBI
         version with "CBI" selected in this field.  In addition you should submit a
         second, redacted (non-CBI) version of the form(s) with "FOIA" selected in this
         field.
      c.  Manufacturers may include FOIA or CBI content in an attachment or
         attachments to a report  (e.g., technical service bulletin, owner and dealer
         notification, sample recall label).  Manufacturers should be sure to select the
         appropriate confidentiality status in  this field for the attachment(s) (e.g., "CBI"
         should be selected  for a CBI attachment; "FOIA" should be selected for a
         FOIA or non-CBI attachment).
      d.  NOTE:  For any CBI claims, manufacturers are required to clearly identify CBI
         according to 40 CFR §85.1909 and should be prepared to substantiate any
         CBI claims.

8.  Document Applicability: Since manufacturers will be including the test group
   information  on the report(s) submitted to the Verify Document Module,
   manufacturers should select "General Applicability (do not specify any EF/TGs)" for
   this field.

9.  Does this document apply to one/multiple specific model year(s)?: In almost all
   cases, you should select "Yes" for this field. You will then be required to select the
   applicable model year(s) in the subsequent field. If Model Year is not applicable to
   your product or industry, please select "No".

10. Model Year:  If the report applies to a single model year, please select the
   applicable model year. If the report applies to multiple model years, click and hold
   the "Ctrl" button on your keyboard while selecting each applicable model year.

-------
   11. Document Date: Click the "Select" button to bring up a calendar and then select
      the date of the report. (The submittal date will be automatically recorded by the
      system.)

   12. Title:  Enter the title of the document as it appears on the document you are
      submitting. For more guidance, you may click the "Help" button at the top of the
      form and follow the instructions given for this field.

   13. Abstract:  At the beginning of this field, fora EDIR, VERR or an attachment to an
      EDIR and/or a VERR, you should enter the applicable report number (e.g., 3522) at
      the beginning to allow searching for a particular report (Note: you can also cut and
      paste the information from the "Compliance Document Type, if "Other"" field
      mentioned above). Following the report number, you may enter information that
      describes the document.  For a QR, you can simply type in "QR" since it does not
      have a unique report number associated with it.  For more guidance,  you may click
      on the "Help" button at the top of the form and follow the instructions  given for this
      field.

   14. Keywords:  For all report types (EDIR/VERR/QR), you should select "In-Use" at a
      minimum.  For the VERR/QR, in addition to selecting "In-Use", you should also
      select "Recall". For an EDIR or VERR attachment, you should select the appropriate
      entry based on the previously mentioned selections depending on the type of report
      (e.g., for an EDIR attachment, select "In-Use" at a minimum; for a VERR attachment,
      select "In-Use" and "Recall").

   15. Are you the document owner?:  If the person submitting the document to the
      Verify Document Module is also the person that should be contacted  regarding
      details in the document being submitted, you should check "Yes" for this field. The
      Verify Document Module will  automatically enter the information for the document
      owner name, phone number  and e-mail address in the appropriate boxes based on
      your Verify user account information. Otherwise, you should check "No" and enter
      the appropriate document owner's name, phone number and e-mail address in the
      required text boxes.

      This information, along with the Verify user account information, will be used to
      automatically populate the submitter and contact information in EPA's database and
      for reference by the EPA.  Therefore, please ensure the accuracy of this information
      when entering data.

   16. Comments: You may enter  any additional details or notes  in this field that you feel
      are relevant and necessary related to submission of the report. However, any
      comments related to the content of the  report should be included in the comments
      field on the report form, not this field. For more guidance, click the "Help" button at
      the top of the form and follow the instructions given  for this field.

 As noted throughout these  instructions, there is a Help button at the top of the page that
will provide guidance for each field in the Verify Document Module submittal page.
                                                                               10

Step 5;  User Notifications Regarding Form Submittal Status
Following a document submission to the Verify Document Module, two validations will occur prior to
storage of the document in the EPA database. The first validation is performed on the selections
and information entered in the Verify Document Module (i.e., metadata) and the second validation is
performed on the data entered in the forms.  For both validations, there will be messages to the
user with the validation results (e.g., received/accepted or rejected).  Below is a brief explanation
and example of the messages for both validations.
Step 5a:  Verify Document Module Notifications
Following the submission of a document to the Verify Document Module, a validation will be
performed on the metadata  to ensure that the appropriate information has been entered for that
document.  For this validation, you will receive one of two messages in your CDX inbox indicating
your document has either been received/accepted or rejected.  You can use your CDX Inbox to
track the results of a document submission.
To access your CDX Inbox, click on "Inbox" in the navigation menu on the left side of the screen
(see example below). The acceptance or rejection is based on  system validation checks according
to data/formatting  rules for the document.  For example, if you attempt to submit a file that was
previously submitted, the Verify Document Module will reject the submission since  the validation
only allows you to submit a  document  once.  In this case, you could simply change the name of the
document and resubmit the document to the Verify Document Module. If the new name is unique,
you should then see a received/accepted message in your CDX inbox.
Within the inbox, you can open a message by clicking on the "Verify Administrator" link in the
"From" column or the link in the "Subject" column for a particular submission. The information  on
the screen will differ from the example since it is based on your Verify account information.

  Once you have completed reviewing a specific message, you can select the "Back to Inbox" button
  at the bottom of the message.  If you need to submit additional documents or other actions, click on
  the "My CDX" link to return to your CDX account page. If not, be sure to log out of the system using
  the "Logout" link in the blue navigation bar.

  If you do  not receive any messages regarding your submission or are unsure of a document's
  status,  you should contact the VERIFY Help Desk for assistance.

  Step 5b:   EPA Database Application Notifications
  Once the document has been received and accepted by the Verify Document Module, it will be
  parsed  into the database for review  by EPA users.  A validation of the raw form data will be
  performed prior to database application transfer.  For this validation, all messages are sent to the e-
  mail address specified as the document owner in the document meta-data not the CDX inbox.
                                                                                                        13

-------
As discussed above, you can receive one of two messages in your user-defined inbox indicating a
document has either been accepted or could  not be processed (see below).  Some of the reasons a
document may not be processed are: a form validation was not performed prior to submittal,
identified errors following form validation were not corrected, or the incorrect version of the form is
being used/submitted.  As a result, you would receive a message like the one shown below
indicating that your submission could not be processed  and identifying the name of the file you
attempted to submit.

For this example, you can open the form on your desktop and validate the form, correct any errors,
or use the correct form version, and re-submit the document (TIP: you will have to use a different
name for the document since you previously submitted  it to the Verify Document Module and  only
unique file names are accepted).  Once it  has successfully been stored in the EPA database, an
acceptance message similar to the one below will be sent to your user account inbox and the
process  is complete.
               Example of a message for a report that could not be processed by the EPA database
