The Data Standards Team issued recommendations regarding existing standards used for continuous monitoring data. The Data Standards for Continuous Monitoring Data: An Evaluation and Recommendation report evaluates existing data standards that meet the needs of U.S. EPA, states, and tribes that want to use advanced monitoring sensors.
The E-Enterprise Facility Integration project is developing shared services to connect various sources of regulated facility information to enable streamlined reporting requirements and more accurate, timely facility information.
The Watersheds-based Monitoring and Interoperable Data Platforms project piloted the development of a centralized catalog for discovering sensor data. This could provide a single portal, where participants could register their sensors, and be included in data searches based on parameters collected or geographic attributes.
The Leak Detection and Repair Rule Modernization (LDAR) Team seeks to evaluate studies and analysis from U.S. EPA, state and local agencies, and external organizations (e.g. industry) in order to determine whether there are more cost-effective ways to implement LDAR program monitoring requirements while achieving greater environmental benefits using modern tools such as newer technologies and methods.
The toolkit explores how agencies can combine elements of Lean and IT solutions to streamline and automate processes, amplifying gains in efficiency. Topics covered include Lean Startup, Lean Process Improvement, and Agile Methodology.
