Recommendation 1: Reduce Project’s Scope

An explicit definition of CIWQS’ core regulatory functions has been established - DONE

The Steering Committee has reviewed and approved this definition - DONE

All members of the CIWQS team understand and agree with the redefined scope - DONE

CIWQS Definition and Scope

General functionality provided by CIWQS Water Board Programs utilizing CIWQS Receive, manage and provide data

submitted by regulated entities for the following…

External interfaces with other systems

Page 5: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

CIWQS Definition and Scope

General functionality provided by CIWQS:• Permit and Order tracking

(Party/Place/Regulatory Measure)• Track inspections• Track self-monitoring reports• Manage violations and enforcement activities Reporting of regulatory information both

internally and externally, including to the public

Page 6: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

CIWQS Definition and Scope

Water Board Programs utilizing CIWQS:• NPDES (discharges to surface waters)• WDR (discharges to land or non-federal

water)• Landfills• Storm Water• Water Rights (eWRIMS)• Irrigated Lands [for enforcement and billing

only]

Page 7: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

CIWQS Definition and Scope

Receive, manage and provide data submitted by regulated entities for the following:

• Online reporting of sanitary sewer overflows (SSO)• Online submittal of Storm Water annual reports

(SWARM)• Online submittal of NPDES self-monitoring reports

(eSMR)• Online enrollment in Storm Water General Permits

(SWPAP) [under development, will replace SWARM]• Online submittal of water use data [new functionality;

under development]

Page 8: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

CIWQS Definition and Scope

External interfaces with other systems:• Water Boards billing system (Automated Fee

Billing System (AFBS) or successor)• U.S. EPA’s NPDES tracking system

(PCS/ICIS) [under consideration]• Electronic Content Management [in pilot

testing]

Modules Since Last Review

Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) module Online reporting of sanitary sewer spills

Water Rights Information Management System (eWRIMS) Replaced old water rights system Has large GIS component Connects at Party and Place tables

Systems No Longer in CIWQS Scope

Geotracker Remain separate system Soliciting software-as-a-service vendor

SWAMP Upgrading from MS Access to MS SQL Support California Data Exchange Network

(CEDEN) Utilize California Water Quality Monitoring

Council to provide guidance on new system parameters

CIWQS and PCS/ICIS-NPDES

Can two systems work together and complement each other?

Page 13: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

1313

CIWQS and PCS/ICIS-NPDES

Both systems have to exist – have functionality that is unique to each CIWQS: billing, NPDES/WDR overlap, Self-

monitoring reporting (SMR), mandated reporting [WC 13385(o)], etc…

PCS/ICISN-PDES:Discharger Monitoring Reporting (DMR), automated determination of compliance, compilation of QNCR, etc…

CIWQS and PCS/ICIS-NPDES

Approaches CIWQS feeds PCS/ICIS-NDES – tried that Modify PCS/ICIS-NDES to CA needs – won’t

happen Co-manage both systems together to exploit

strengths of each – common middle ground

Page 15: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

CIWQS and PCS/ICIS-NPDES

Water Board Approach Commit to managing information in PCS/ICIS-

NDES Will look at small defined data flows, both

ways between systems, when able, but until then will make sure data is entered into PCS/ICIS-NDES

Incorporate PCS/ICIS-NDES reporting into program management

Principle Operating Directives

Rules to live by!

Page 17: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

1717

Principle Operating Directives

Purpose of CIWQS – Primarily a regulatory information management system to: Manage business processes Work in conjunction with other data systems Inform decisions Provide accountability

Secondary role is for automation

Page 18: Redefinition of Scope Presenter: Darrin Polhemus 1

1818

Principle Operating Directives

Expansion of CIWQS Only add new modules when existing needs

met The need for new module has been identified

and justified Resources for the new module are available

and have been adequately allocated There is common data and functionality

between new module and CIWQS
