The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ), Air Quality Division (AQD) utilizes a portal platform known as EPA’s Shared CROMERR Services (SCS) accessible here: https://encromerr.epa.gov. Note: If you have an existing ENV-ITE account, you still must have a valid SCS electronic signature. SCS signatures replace the ENV-ITE account for WDEQ-AQD’s IMPACT system.
A Shared CROMERR Services (SCS) signature enables a user to submit and track electronic documents through the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) IMPACT Portal. To access this Portal, an SCS electronic signature is required.
