Unified Program Permits
Unified Program Facility Permit Update May 2013
The County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health recently changed to a new computer system to better serve the citizens of the county. During the transition period, we experienced technical difficulties and your invoice is being sent late.
Unified Program Facility Permits having an expiration date between January and June 2013 will be receiving an invoice to the mailing address on record beginning May 10, 2013. All fees assessed are based on the last facility inspection and any updates the inspector processed prior to November 2012.
Please be advised, effective January 1, 2013 all CUPA regulated businesses are required by law (Assembly Bill 2286) to submit business information electronically through the California Environmental Reporting System (CERS). Therefore, all changes that have occurred at your facility, including contacts, inventory, wastes and USTs, need to be made in CERS. For additional information please visit our CERS website.
