Register for RFS Database and select a compliance option

All covered entities were required to register and select a compliance option by July 1, 2024. If you have not already registered, please register immediately to avoid enforcement procedures. 

Moving forward, covered entities have the option to select or change their compliance option by the start of the compliance period, which is January 1 of each calendar year. Furthermore, BPS will notify covered entities by October 31 of each year with the option to select or change a compliance option.
