Sec. 501.21  Program reporting to EPA.

    The State Program Director must prepare annual reports as detailed 
in this section and must submit any reports required under this section 
to the Regional Administrator. These reports will serve as the main 
vehicle for the State to report on the status of its sludge management 
program, update its inventory of sewage sludge generators and sludge 
disposal facilities, and provide information on incidents of 
noncompliance. The State Program Director must submit these reports to 
the Regional Administrator according to a mutually agreed-upon schedule. 
The reports specified below may be combined with other reports to EPA 
(e.g., existing NPDES or RCRA reporting systems) where appropriate and 
must include the following:
    (a) A summary of the incidents of noncompliance which occurred in 
the previous year that includes:
    (1) The non-complying facilities by name and reference number;
    (2) The type of noncompliance, a brief description and date(s) of 
the event;
    (3) The date(s) and a brief description of the action(s) taken to 
ensure timely and appropriate action to achieve compliance;
    (4) Status of the incident(s) of noncompliance with the date of 
resolution; and
    (5) Any details which tend to explain or mitigate the incident(s) of 
noncompliance.
    (b) Information to update the inventory of all sewage sludge 
generators and sewage sludge disposal facilities submitted with the 
program plan or in previous annual reports, including:
    (1) Name and location;
    (2) Permit numbers for permits containing sewage sludge 
requirements;
    (3) Sludge management practice(s) used; and
    (4) Sludge production volume.
