Exhibit D G10- UPA -82 CERS fields to automatically update certain ESS DB facility owner /operator information fields at some time after the CERS 1/1/13 requirement date 5. Inspection /Enforcement The ESS inspectors presently use paper -based inspection reports to collect inspection and enforcement information and then manually put that information into the ESS DB once they are back in the ESS office. The ESS DB is then used for violation and enforcement tracking along with scheduling reinspections and future routine inspections. The ESS DB is also used to poll the stored data and complete the current paper annual CUPA program reports submitted to Cal /EPA. Additionally, the ESS DB also tracks the fines associated with the enforcement actions resulting from the inspections. Once the CERS grant has been awarded, the ESS is planning on integrating tablet PCs into the field for generating CUPA inspection reports with the ability to immediately email all inspection reports to business managers. This will be accomplished using an application (supplied by the service provider) that will allow the tablet PC to access the inspector's personal office computer. As such, the inspector will be able to directly go into the ESS DB using their tablet PCs and directly utilize the new inspection ESS DB layouts discussed in section 2 (F). As the tablet PCs will have remote access to the inspectors' individual office PCs and the ESS DB, there will be little additional time requirements for the ESS inspectors to close -out the inspection once they have returned to the office; inspection documentation will be almost exclusively done while at the site of the business rather than post- inspection back at the office. This process should be more time efficient and inherently more accurate than when done post- inspection. Additionally, the tablet PCs will be able to use the additional inspection database functionality discussed previously in 2 (F). This sub - database will be initially populated with the violations on the CUPA's general program, UST, APSA and HW inspection forms and reference the code, regulation, or statute; and the statewide violation library upon its release as part of the CAL EPA CERS development The sub - database will be further developed by the ESS inspectors themselves as they identify Pabe 8 of 12
