ICIS-NPDES - Informal and Formal Enforcement Actions

Enforcement Action Identifiers

Informal enforcement actions in ICIS-NPDES are uniquely identified by a Enforcement Action Identifier (EAID). The EAID is set set automatically for new evaluations in nVIRO and is stored in the nVIRO database. This ensures that Enforcement Identifiers never change for a given enforcement action and allows for running nVISAGE reports based for a given identifier.

Enforcement Action Types

Each enforcement action must be prescribed an enforcement action type code. The table below shows the available enforcement action types. Enforcement action types are mapped in the nVIRO Compliance Action Type lookup screen.

Note that Informal actions are defined where the Activity Type Code is AIF in ICIS-NPDES and formal actions are defined for the AFR and JDC Activity Type Codes.
