This EPA guide contains instructions for online EIS filing using EPA's e-NEPA system. Using e-NEPA for filing does not affect an agency’s responsibility for public distribution of an EIS, which should be completed prior to filing.

EISs submitted by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Monday will be included in EPA’s Federal Register Notice of Availability for that week, normally published on Friday.

Additional information on EPA's EIS filing system is available on EPA's website.
