To improve the management and reporting functions of the Pre-Sampling Notification (PSN) system for administrators and inspection agencies, in addition to maintaining the PSN system, this project added related functions and optimized the system based on management requirements and suggestions from users. The primary outcomes of this project were: (1) Enhance reporting and management functions Several improvements were made to enhance the system efficiency and user-friendliness for the users. This project optimized and added new functions for users (inspection agency) and administrator (Environmental Analysis Laboratory, EAL), adjusted sampling schedule statistics on the user-end, optimized the excel file downloading of their sampling schedule, and added a new section demonstrating system operation manual. For the administrator end, this project added several functions such as managing and keeping records for the malfunctioned sampling equipment of inspection agencies, adjusting the interface of evaluation cases, adding a link to agent case evaluation, and improving the annual and seasonal ranking function for demonstrating operating outcome. These improvements enhanced the management efficiency and understanding of the inspection agencies. (2) Integrate and analyze the reporting from stationary-pollution-source business entities and inspection agencies The functions of the Application and Management System of Combing Air Pollute and Pre-Sampling Notification (AMSCAP) were adjusted and integrated into the PSN system. Several functions were integrated including the Air Pollute Management Information System (APMIS), verification of PSN reporting numbers, APMIS raw data inquiry, historical data analysis for data from public and private venues, data introduction to APMIS, and notification on anomalous reporting. This project also checked the reported pollution information from the two systems for future data integration. This project also explored the reporting methods and data analysis planning for the inspection category of AA air monitoring (stack emissions). (3) Develop online reply, review, and notification functions for evaluation comments In line with the administrative workflow of the EAL in evaluating inspection agencies, an online function is established for inspection agencies to reply to the evaluation comments and upload supporting information. The administrator could also directly reply to comments through the system. In addition to preserving the reply to evaluation comments, this design enhanced the overall system efficiency. (4) Routine and other work content This project continued to introduce data from other EPA systems such as the Sediment Reporting and Management (Soil and Groundwater Remediation Fund Management Board), Soil Contamination Inspector and Management System, SGM System, Agricultural Land Survey System, and Underground Storage Tank System. This project provided customer service and regular support for information security testing, function maintenance, and temporary requirement adjustment. This year, the work plan of this project was to optimize and add new functions for EAL management and inspection agency reporting to improve the efficiency of the PSN system and to meet project requirements.
