The CDX/NetDMR Assistance Sessions all around the state will provide assistance in two ways:

LDEQ Small Business Assistance staff in conjunction with the LDEQ NetDMR Team will help permittees in setting up their CDX/NetDMR accounts in NetDMR. The LDEQ staff will help the permittees one-on-one to establish their username and password at the CDX level and request access to their permit(s) at the NetDMR level. You can bring a completed registration packet to the assistance or you can fill one out there (click here for registration packet). Users who need help with already existing accounts are also welcome to attend.
The LDEQ staff will also assist CDX/NetDMR Account Holders in submitting their NetDMRs. Account holders are asked to bring in their lab results and be able to login to their CDX/NetDMR accounts. If you had attended one of our previous CDX/NetDMR REGISTRATION Assistance sessions, please bring your completed registration sheets (remember your security questions' ANSWERS)! If you need NetDMR SUBMITTAL Assistance, click here for the GUIDANCE DOCUMENT.

If you would like to suggest a session in your area (that we did not visit) in the future, please call the Small Business Hotline at (800) 259-2890 or email sbap@la.gov.
