Facilities

The portal lists facilities linked to the company. A company may have no facilities, or several. Facility-level forms and pollution sources belong to a specific facility, not to the company record alone.

Based on answers in the Survey during company registration, a facility may already be created for the company.

Anyone with access to the company can open the facilities list. Opening a facility detail is limited to Company Admin and to users who were explicitly granted access to that facility.

Facilities list in the portal showing facilities linked to the company.

Edit an existing facility

Only Company Admin can edit facility data. For other users who can open the facility detail, the screen is read-only.

Facility detail General information tab with Facility Identity, Contact Information, Address, and Additional notes, and an Edit Facility action.

Except National ID and Historical ID, any facility data on this screen can be changed by Company Admin.

These fields are required and must be filled:

  • Facility name
  • Phone
  • Address

When editing as Company Admin:

  1. Open Facilities.
  2. Select the facility.
  3. Select Edit where available.
  4. Change the fields that need updating (except National ID and Historical ID).
  5. Save. Discard cancels unsaved changes.

Opening detail requires Company Admin rights or an explicit grant for that facility.

Reporting obligations

On the facility detail, the Reporting obligations tab lists facility-level obligations in the same groups as in the portal. Anyone who can open that facility β€” Company Admin and facility users with access to it β€” can view the tab. Only obligations marked Active apply to that facility. The tab is informational and read-only; obligations cannot be changed in the portal.

Company-level obligations (packaging, landfills, special streams) are listed under My company β†’ Reporting obligations. See Company data.

Facility detail Reporting obligations tab with grouped series (for example Waste Management GIO), form codes, obligation names, and Active status; no edit actions.

A facility may have several active obligations at once. The FORM series (national register) and the LRIZ FORM series (local register) are not assigned together.

Facility users

On the facility detail, the Facility users tab lists people with access to that facility. Anyone who can open that facility β€” Company Admin and facility users with access to it β€” can open the tab.

Only Company Admin can assign facility users. The facility must be active.

Company Admin can grant facility access in two ways:

  1. Invite a new user directly to that facility β€” send an invitation with facility access for the selected site. See Invite a user under Users and access.
  2. Add an existing company user β€” on the facility Facility users tab, select a person who already has an association with the company and grant them access to this facility.
Facility users tab listing people with access to the facility, with Add user and a Responsible Yes badge where applicable.

Responsible person

Each facility has exactly one responsible person β€” the main responsible user for that facility. The designation appears in the facility user list (Responsible column). That person’s name is used in facility reporting (for example on PDF output).

When the first user is assigned to a facility that has no responsible person yet, that user becomes the responsible person automatically.

Only Company Admin can change who the responsible person is. In the facility users table, open the row menu for another active facility user and select Set as responsible person.

Facility users table row menu open with Set as responsible person and Withdraw access from facility.

Withdraw facility access

Only Company Admin can withdraw a person’s access to the facility. In the facility users table, open the row menu and select Withdraw access from facility.

Access cannot be withdrawn from the current responsible person until responsibility is transferred to another active facility user on that facility (Transfer responsibility). After the transfer, access for the previous responsible person can be withdrawn.

Pollution sources

On the facility detail, the Pollution sources tab lists emission sources that belong to that facility. Anyone who can open that facility β€” Company Admin and facility users with access to it β€” can open the tab.

The tab appears when the facility has a related air, water, or soil reporting obligation, or when sources already exist. Sources are grouped by medium. A group is shown when that medium’s obligation applies or when sources of that type already exist.

Facility Pollution sources tab with Air, Water, or Soil source groups and Add source actions when obligations apply.

Only Company Admin can add a source and edit an existing active source from the row menu, when the facility is active. Pollution sources are not deleted in the portal. Inactive sources cannot be edited until they are active again.

Air pollution sources

The Air pollution sources group is available when the facility has an active Air Emissions reporting obligation β€” FORM 2, LRIZ FORM 2, or GVE β€” or when air sources already exist.

Air sources identify stacks or emission points used later on air emission forms. Each form is linked to one air source for that facility and year.

Only Company Admin can use Add Air Source and edit an active air source when the facility is active.

Air pollution source edit form with Source Number and Source Name read-only after creation, and Coordinate conclusion unchecked so Longitude and Latitude remain editable.

What to enter, and when:

FieldWhen / why
Source Number, Source NameSet when creating the source so it can be selected on air emission forms. After create, these values cannot be changed.
Type of sourceRequired. Describes the kind of emission point (for example Industrial or Energy).
Longitude, LatitudeLocation of the source. Enter accurate coordinates so NRIZ can verify them.
Obligation to measureWhether measurement is required for this source.
Elevation, Source Height, Inner DiameterTechnical attributes of the source used in air reporting.
Installed Heat PowerRequired when Type of source is Energy; otherwise optional.
NoteOptional free text.

Coordinate conclusion is set only by a NRIZ administrator after coordinates are verified. Once it is set, Longitude and Latitude cannot be changed. Only a NRIZ administrator can deactivate (or reactivate) an air source.

Water pollution sources

The Water pollution sources group is available when the facility has an active Water Emissions reporting obligation β€” FORM 3, LRIZ FORM 3, or OTV β€” or when water sources already exist.

Water sources identify discharge outlets (sewers) used later on water emission forms and related water registers. Each form or register entry is linked to one water source for that facility.

Only Company Admin can use Add Water Source and edit an active water source when the facility is active.

Water pollution source edit form with Sewer Number and Sewer Name read-only after creation, recipient and wastewater fields, and PPOV treatment device groups when a treatment facility is indicated.

What to enter, and when:

FieldWhen / why
Sewer Number, Sewer NameSet when creating the outlet so it can be selected on water emission forms. After create, these values cannot be changed.
Longitude, LatitudeLocation of the outlet. Enter accurate coordinates so NRIZ can verify them.
Projected capacity of sewer (l/s)Design capacity of the outlet, when known.
Recipient type, Recipient name, BasinRequired. Identify where the wastewater is discharged and which river basin applies.
Water supply methodRequired. How the facility is supplied with water (public water supply or other sources).
Type of discharged wastewaterAt least one type must be selected: Sanitary, Technological, Cooling, or Atmospheric.
Is there a treatment facility for waste waterWhen checked, mark which PPOV treatment devices are present (mechanical, chemical, biological, heat exchange). At least one device is required if treatment exists.
NoteOptional free text.

Coordinate conclusion is set only by a NRIZ administrator after coordinates are verified. Once it is set, Longitude and Latitude cannot be changed. Only a NRIZ administrator can deactivate (or reactivate) a water source.

Soil pollution sources

The Soil pollution sources group is available when the facility has an active Soil Emissions reporting obligation β€” FORM 4 or LRIZ FORM 4 β€” or when soil sources already exist.

Soil sources identify locations where pollutants in waste discharged to soil are reported. Each soil emission form is linked to one soil source for that facility and year.

Only Company Admin can use Add Soil Source and edit an active soil source when the facility is active.

Soil pollution source edit form with Location Number and Location Name read-only after creation, and Coordinate conclusion unchecked so Longitude and Latitude remain editable.

What to enter, and when:

FieldWhen / why
Location Number, Location NameSet when creating the location so it can be selected on soil emission forms. After create, these values cannot be changed.
Longitude, LatitudeLocation of the soil source. Enter accurate coordinates so NRIZ can verify them.
NoteOptional free text.

Coordinate conclusion is set only by a NRIZ administrator after coordinates are verified. Once it is set, Longitude and Latitude cannot be changed. Only a NRIZ administrator can deactivate (or reactivate) a soil source.
