The production launch of the CERS2 Business and Regulator portals has been delayed to January 8 because of legacy data issues originating from the 2009 Unidocs to CERS1 data migration that were uncovered during the data migration process. Cal/EPA apologizes for the inconvenience. With the data migration involving 30,000 facilities representing about a fourth of the regulated facilities in the state, deferring the production launch will ensure a complete and accurate migration of these businesses’ data.

If you would like to gain familiarity with CERS2 right now, you can begin using the CERS2 Business and Regulator training portals being made available today at http://cers.calepa.ca.gov/. The training portals are fully functional copies of CERS2.  Existing CERS users can sign in to the training portals with their CERS1 sign in, and other users can create new accounts. Neither training portal contains any business or facility data, but users can create new businesses and facilities in the Business training portal, and regulator users (once approved by CERS Technical Support staff) can view and act upon these facilities and their submittals.

Thank you for your patience.
