CDX
Once ECMPS 2.0 replaces the desktop ECMPS software, ECMPS 2.0 and the CAMD Business System (CBS) will utilize CDX login services; on September 1, 2023, EPA released a test version of CBS to begin integration and testing of the CDX, CBS, and ECMPS Beta application interactions. For new or existing users that do not have a working CDX test login and password, please do the following:
-
Ensure you have a CDX test login and current password. This account is specific to the beta environment and is separate from other CDX accounts used for official submissions to EPA. CDX Test If you are a new user follow the updated CDX Start-Up Guide (pdf) . It is no longer a requirement to select your real organization when registering.
-
Login into the CBS test application using your CDX test account credentials. Review your associated facilities to ensure you are either a Designated Representative, Alternate Designated Representative, or you have been granted preparer or submitter role access to your facilities. The CBS test application is separate from the production version, changes to data in test will not be reflected in the production version.
-
Login into the ECMPS Beta application. You should now have access to your facility data and the ability to check out and edit data.
