Compliance Due Dates

Do you know when your compliance reports are due? Are you a Large Quantity Generator that needs to pay the annual fee, but you do not know the fee schedule? The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) provides information on the due dates of forms and/or reports that may apply to your operations.

Note: This list does not attempt to identify all forms or reports that are required to be in compliance with environmental rules and regulations. Please check with the specific IDEM program offices (Air, Land, or Water) or call the Compliance and Technical Assistance Program (CTAP) if you have additional questions.

If Your Facility is not an LQG, SQG, or TSD
  • If your facility was not an LQG, SQG, or TSD facility in any month of the year, no report is required.
  • However, if you received a reporting reminder in December you MUST register and complete a subsequent notification in myRCRAid to update your generator status appropriately. This is necessary so that IDEM can document that you were not an LQG or SQG during the report year and do not owe a report. Even if the business is no longer active the entire report is still required if the facility acted as an SQG or LQG in any one month during the report year.
