Committee Purpose/Member Responsibilities
The CERS Change Management Committee (CMC) was established at the direction of UPAAG to provide realistic identification and prioritization/scheduling of program/technical issues related to the California Environmental Reporting System (CERS). The CMC’s decisions give guidance to Cal/EPA management and CERS technical staff on the precedence and importance of CERS change requests. The CERS CMC operates under the Data Steering Committee (DSC) policy direction, but the program/technical decisions made by CMC are independent of the DSC.
The CMC’s principle activity will be to review schange requests originating from the CERS Regulator User Group, the CERS Business User Group, CUPA Forum Board, and Cal/EPA. Typically such change requests originate and are tracked in the CERS Enhancements Listing. It will also act as a “sounding board” to Cal/EPA’s CERS management and technical staff as necessary.
Meetings/Documents
Meetings are normally scheduled as web and phone conferences once per month. See the CMC Meeting/Documents page for information about upcoming meetings.
User Group Listserv
All user group members, and any other interested parties, should
subscribe to the listserv to receive e-mails on upcoming meetings and other communications.
User Group Membership
The committee has 7 members that represent their various constituencies: 2 members selected from the CERS Regulator User Group, 2 members selected from the CERS Business User Group, 2 members representing Cal/EPA, and 1 member representing the CUPA Forum Board. Committee members are the conduit for change requests from their respective groups. Committee members are tasked to represent the interests of the CERS Project overall and their constituent groups.
