A Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) is a United States regulatory term for a periodic water pollution report prepared by industries, municipalities and other facilities discharging to surface waters. [ 1 ] : 8–14 The facilities collect wastewater samples, conduct chemical and/or biological tests of the samples, and submit reports to a state ...
The corollary discharge theory (CD) of motion perception helps understand how the brain can detect motion through the visual system, even though the body is not moving. When a signal is sent from the motor cortex of the brain to the eye muscles, a copy of that signal (see efference copy ) is sent through the brain as well.
This requirement is potentially self-incriminating, forcing industries to provide information that may subject them to penalties and legal constraints. As a result, some dischargers go to great lengths to avoid penalties, including falsifying discharge monitoring reports and tampering with monitoring equipment. In United States v.
In physiology, an efference copy or efferent copy is an internal copy of an outflowing (), movement-producing signal generated by an organism's motor system. [1] It can be collated with the (reafferent) sensory input that results from the agent's movement, enabling a comparison of actual movement with desired movement, and a shielding of perception from particular self-induced effects on the ...

Data gaps and monitoring report—identification of any additional data needs and monitoring recommendations; Source assessment—identification of sources of pollutants, and magnitude of sources. Load allocation—determination of natural pollutant load, and load from human activities (i.e. diffuse nonpoint sources and point discharges).
Alleged car thief busted with help of dimwitted diary entry: ‘Totally stole a car today!’
The FRS is available through an EPA website called the "Envirofacts Data Warehouse." [3] Facilities can be queried in tabular format, with active links to program databases that contain regulatory data, such as the Discharge Monitoring Report used in the water pollution permit program.
