Private and Confidential Information

Filers must not upload to the e-filing system private information the disclosure of which would constitute an unwarranted invasion of any person’s privacy (for example: social security numbers, birthdates, medical records, personal financial information, or other private information). 

Additionally, any CBI or information for which an entity asserts a business confidential claim should not be uploaded through the e-filing system. The EAB will consider any claim of confidentiality for any business information to be waived if such information is uploaded using the e-filing system. 

For information on how to file information covered by a business confidential claim, business information previously determined by EPA pursuant to 40 C.F.R. § 2.205 to be entitled to confidential treatment, or other private materials, go to How to File with the EPA's Environmental Appeals Board by US. Postal Service, Personal Delivery, or Courier, or contact the Clerk of the Board at Clerk_EAB@epa.gov or by phone at 202-233-0122
