[EXTERNAL]: New Case Inventory Document Version to be Released

The Department, working with stakeholders, has developed a new version of the Case Inventory Document (CID), version 1.5. The rollout date of the new CID is expected to be February 2, 2021 with training to be held on February 18, 2021

The instructions for the new CID have been removed from the CID itself, and can now be found at https://www.nj.gov/dep/srp/srra/forms/cid_ins_faqs.pdf. Review the instructions before working with the new CID.

The new CID 'Validate for Upload Button' performs multiple data checks within the CID that will prevent most errors LSRPs encounter while uploading the document. Old CIDs created using older versions of the document will not be able to be uploaded after 5 PM on February 1, 2021. However, CID Versions 1.3 and 1.4 can be emailed to srpcidconversion@dep.nj.gov to be converted by the DEP. It is expected that the automated process will convert and email the CID back to the sender the same day.

The new CID is being rolled out along with upgrades to the Remedial Phase Report Submission services, which should help alleviate problems with large CIDs. In addition, the Incident Communication Number validation now prevents typographical errors in incidents that occurred after March 2002, and will check that Confirmed Discharge Notices were filed for incidents that occurred after November 4, 2009.
