The Remediation and Redevelopment (RR) Program’s submittal portal is now back online after upgrades were made at the beginning of the new year.
The URL to the application is slightly different. The new link has been updated on the RR Program Submittal Portal website as of this morning, January 7.
Full details about the update are available in the December 20 article in the RR Report titled “Overhaul Coming for RR Program’s Submittal Portal.”
Semi-annual reporting for the period of July 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 is due January 30, 2020. Semi-annual reporting is required of responsible parties (RPs) for all “open” sites, including those sites the DNR formerly classified as “conditionally closed” in the BRRTS online database. Consultants may submit these reports on behalf of the RPs.
An email from the DNR with your unique report identification number was sent during the first week of January 2020. If you did not receive an email, you can request a Report ID number by submitting the Report ID Request Form. The Report ID number you will receive uniquely identifies the activity for which you wish to report, the reporting period, and verifies the person using the ID is authorized to submit the report. If you have any questions, please contact Tim Zeichert at (608) 266-5788.
The Remediation and Redevelopment (RR) Program’s Submittal Portal will be taken offline beginning Friday, January 3, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. until Tuesday, January 7 at 9:00 a.m. as the RR Program works to launch a new version of the application.
A new URL for the updated application will be made available on the RR Program Submittal Portal webpage when the application relaunches on January 7. Be sure to access the new application directly through the submittal portal webpage.
