The Federal 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments required states to establish a Small Business Environmental Assistance Program (SBEAP) to provide technical, administrative, and regulatory support for small businesses. The SBEAP staff serve as a liaison between the regulatory agencies and small business. The SBEAP does not have regulatory enforcement authority. Confidentiality is maintained when representing the interest of a small business. The types of assistance provided through the SBEAP include:


  » Informing businesses of requirements in the Act that apply to them as well as any applicable dates


  » Maintaining a list of affected industry for information distribution


  » Disseminating up-to-date information about the Act to the small business community, including easy to understand public information materials


  » Helping small businesses deal with specific technical, administrative, and compliance problems


  » Making necessary referrals


  » Providing training opportunities
