Water Management

The Clean Water Act (CWA) establishes the basic structure for regulating discharges of pollutants into the waters of the United States and regulating quality standards for surface waters. The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program, authorized by the CWA, controls water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants into waters of the United States. Industrial and commercial facilities are unique with respect to the products and processes present at the facility. The types of raw materials, production processes, treatment technologies utilized, and pollutants discharged vary widely and are dependent on the type of industry and specific facility characteristics.

ERA's Environmental Scientists understand the unique data management and reporting needs that your facility has for tracking its water discharges. With reduced resources and increased reporting requirements, we know how difficult it is for you to stay in compliance, meet reporting deadlines and keep up with changes in legislation.

With ERA's environmental software solution you have one place to enter all of your environmental data and one place to find it all, with an Executive dashboard to provide a Birdseye view of your facility's KPI's. ERA's experts maintain the formulas and the regulatory database to incorporate current revisions for local and federal requirements.

With ERA's Water Module you will be able to:

• Define all of your Sources & attach discharge limits
• Group your Sources for tracking & reporting
• Define all of your outfalls in terms of flow rates, distance from shore, depth, etc.

• Incorporate Control Technologies-chemical, physical or biological
• Log Water Samples by volume, ph, temp, lab #, date, time, sampler

ERA's software applications are carefully integrated to offer you the most efficient Environmental Management System on the market today. With all of your duties, it is easy to forget sampling due dates, report deadlines, fee payment dates and permit due dates.
