N.H. Admin. Code § En 708.05

Current through Register No. 45, November 7, 2024
Section En 708.05 - Electronic Filing Requirement, Annual Report
(a) "Electronic filing" means the filing with the department or the commission of an electronic version of a document or form.
(b) The department shall maintain a list on its web site of the types of electronic file formats compatible with its and the commission's computer systems.
(c) Any sewer utility serving fewer than 600 customers shall be exempt from the requirements of this section.
(d) Any sewer utility may petition the department for a one-year waiver from the electronic filing requirement pursuant to the waiver provisions of En 201.05.
(e) In its application for a waiver under (d) above, a sewer utility shall describe and provide evidence to demonstrate that:
(1) It does not have the computer capability to generate electronic reports or filings due to the small size of its overall operations or its lack of computer equipment, expertise, or both; or
(2) Its existing available computer systems are not compatible with the computer systems of the department or the commission and because of this incompatibility it would be prohibitively expensive or cumbersome to file electronically; or
(3) Other circumstances would make electronic filing prohibitively expensive or cumbersome.
(f) The department shall issue a waiver under (d) and (e) above if it determines that the burden on the sewer utility of electronic filing outweighs the benefit to the administrative process.
(g) The department shall make available to each sewer utility upon request an electronic version of the annual report form when the department has prepared and has available an electronic version.
