Instructions for the Agent Notice of Delegation
Note: Designated Representatives can submit the Notice of Delegation online through the CAMD Business System (CBS)
at https://camd.epa.gov/cbs/index.cfm. The Designated Representative must have a user ID and password. If the
Designated Representative needs a user ID and password, he/she should call Karen VanSickle at (202) 343-9220 or Kirk
Nabors at (202) 343-9171 or Paula Branch at (202) 343-9168.
Any reference in these instructions to the Representative or Designated Representative means the Acid Rain Designated
Representative, the CAIR Designated, and/or the Transport Rule Designated Representative, as applicable. Any reference
to the Alternate Designated Representative means the Acid Rain Alternate Designated Representative, the CAIR Alternate
Representative, and/or the Transport Rule Alternate Representative, as applicable.
A Designated Representative may delegate, to one or more natural persons, his or her authority to make an electronic
submission on his or her behalf, in a format prescribed by the Administrator. In order to delegate authority to make an
electronic submission to the Administrator on his or her behalf, the Designated Representative must submit to the
Administrator a notice of delegation. This notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrator and until receipt by the
Administrator of a superseding notice of delegation. The superseding notice of delegation may replace any previously
identified agent, add a new agent, or eliminate entirely any delegation of authority. Note that the agent delegation applies
to all of the CAMD programs for which the Designated Representative has assumed responsibility.
Agents can be given the varying levels of authority, and a person may be designated as more than one type of Agent. In
addition, a Representative may assign more than one person the same Agent type.
Please type or print.

* Specifying Facilities and Units for ECMPS Agent Types: Please note that for all three
Emissions Collection and Monitoring Plan System (ECMPS) Submit Data agent types (see
below), you MUST include a list of facilities and units for which the agent type applies. You
MUST generate this list from the CAMD Business System (CBS). CAMD is requiring the use of
the CBS generated list to avoid facility ID and unit ID discrepancies. Anyone with a CBS user
id and password can generate this list for any Representative. To generate this list, log in to
CBS and click the Reports button on the upper left side of the home page. In Step 1, select
People Reports. In Step 2, select Units by Representative. Click the Continue button. Find the
Representative in the list, highlight the name and click the Select button. Click the Print button
to print the report. Once the report is printed, check the Facility Name/Unit ids as appropriate
for the selected Agent type. If you wish to select all Facilities and Units, you can check the
"Select All Units" box at the top of the list. You can NOT check the boxes on-line, you MUST
check them manually after the report is printed.
