EPA has progressed in their efforts to establish a legal framework to introduce electronic reporting and record keeping (ERR) for environmental compliance...

Strengthening the spontaneous reporting scheme via electronic reporting... 

If laboratories electronically report data other than those from anal5dical instruments, those data must be transmitted in accordance with the recommendations made by the electronic reporting standards workgroup. 

Since this calculation of the quantum size effect is demonstrated for direct band gap, this equation must be carefully applied to the indirect band gap semiconductor such as Ti02.9) The effective mass of the conduction band electron reported for rutileTi02 ranges from 3 to 30 with a usual value of 20. For anatase Ti02, on the other hand, the effective electron mass is reported to be l.,0) The smaller effective mass of anatase can be attributed to the higher mobility of the electron, which is 40 times larger than that of rutile.l0)...

U.S. EPA issues Cross-Media Electronic Reporting and Record Keeping Rule (CROMERRR)... 

Where copies of electronic documentation and records are provided to an inspector/investigator to take away, they should be provided on read-only media (preferably write-once, read-only). The same issuance process should be followed as for paper documentation (e.g., signed handover of copy to inspector/investigator, and an exact duplicate copy made on the same media as provided to the inspector/investigator for retention by site). Ad hoc electronic reports from computer systems specifically requested during inspections do not have to be validated. ...

Provision of additional, interactive web-based information. As more companies move to e-reporting or hybrid reporting (in which a hard copy report is supplemented by additional information on the company s website), they are able to provide interactive features that allow the user to customize information to suit their needs. For example, Novo Nordisk (an international pharmaceutical company) produces an electronic report that includes a section titled Interactive charts. Here, users can generate custom data charts for various social and environmental indicators either by site or by year. 

As companies gain experience with hybrid and electronic reporting, we are seeing a number of innovative practices that harness the abilities of web-based communication. Examples of such innovative approaches from within and outside the chemical sector include ... 

Novo Nordisk and others provide interactive graphs that enable the reader to customize the presentation of data to suit their needs. The user can view company-wide or facility-specific data, selecting the performance indicators and years of greatest interest to them. DSM s electronic report provides users with drop-down menus from which they can select and view environmental performance data by site.
