NJPDES Monitoring Report Forms (MRFs) 
Monitoring Report Forms (MRFs) consist of three form types: Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms, Residual Transfer Report (RTR) forms, and Waste Characterization Report (WCR) forms.
MRFs are used for the routine reporting of influent and effluent monitoring data for NJPDES Discharge to Surface Water (DSW), Discharge of Storm Water (DST), Significant Indirect User (SIU), and Discharge to Ground Water (DGW) permits. MRFs are also used for the routine reporting of residuals quality and quantity data as required by the Sludge Quality Assurance Regulations (N.J.A.C. 7:14C) as well as for submitting compliance monitoring data for NJPDES/Residuals permits.

Submission of MRFs

The regulations at N.J.A.C. 7:14A-6.8(d) authorize the electronic submission of monitoring results. Consistent with the provisions of N.J.A.C. 7:14C-1.7(b) and NJPDES permits, monitoring results to meet Sludge Quality Assurance Regulations (SQAR) are required to be submitted electronically. Lastly, consistent with the provisions of 40 CFR 127 (also known as the NPDES Electronic Reporting Rule), all NJPDES discharge to surface water (DSW) and discharge of stormwater (DST) permittees are required to submit MRFs electronically.
