The BRS Data Entry Program

Highlights

The BRS data entry and display program (BRSW4) is a program for data entry and verification of the 2012 BIENNIAL HAZARDOUS WASTE REPORT in the EPA Electronic Reporting Guide format. This program will check, print, and format the flat file data for submission to EPA or your implementing State or Region. This self-expanding file (webBR2012.exe - 5.87MB) will expand into 15MB of Files on your hard drive (C:\BRS\ is the default).
