Final Policy on Inspection Report Timeliness

This final Policy replaces the June 29, 2019, Interim Policy on Inspection Report Timeliness and Standardization (Interim Policy.)  The final Policy establishes timeframes for the timely completion of EPA inspection reports and the timely release of those reports to facilities.  The policy builds on the successful implementation of the Quality Assurance Field Activity Procedures (QAFAP) and four years of implementing the Interim Policy.
