Payment Tips
To ensure proper credit please include the following information on your payment:
- Company/remitter's name (as it appears on EPA document)
- Complete address, including city, state, zip
- Remitter's point of contact person and phone number
- EPA document number (contract, grant, purchase order, etc.)—NOT the remitter's number
- EPA contact name and phone number, if available
