If you are already a STEERS customer for submitting TPDES DMRs, simply update your account to include storm water general permits program area.

Thousands in the regulated community already use STEERS (State of Texas Environmental Electronic Reporting System). See the benefits of submitting electronically.

Step 1: Go to the STEERS login page and either select "Create Account" to set up a new account or select "My Account" to update your existing account. (If you already have access to storm water, skip to Step 3.)

Step 2: Complete the STEERS Participation Agreement (SPA) for storm water. Submit the SPA electronically, or print it out, sign it and mail it in. If you submit electronically, you will receive access to storm water instantly. Otherwise your access will be activated after the SPA is processed by the TCEQ.

You must have a SPA on file with the TCEQ to use STEERS.

Step 3: Once you have a SPA on file for storm water, log on to STEERS. Choose the stormwater program to view a list of available applications.
