Starting January 2013 all Regulated Businesses Must Report Their Hazardous Materials Business Plan (HMBP) Electronically

Assembly Bill AB 2286 requires that all regulated businesses must submit all the information gathered by the Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA), including hazardous materials inventory, electronically (instead of on paper forms) starting January 1, 2013.

To begin inputting in the CERS, the regulated businesses will need to go to the CERS webpage at: http://cers.calepa.ca.gov/. To start reporting your facility(s) information in CERS, businesses must create a new account(s) on the CERS website Business Portal Sign In.

Please note: With the start of the CERS electronic reporting requirements the HMBP forms on our website are for reference purposes only.
