When Is My San Diego HMBP Due?
San Diego County does not use one universal January–March filing period. Annual timing follows the facility’s reporting history. Businesses subject to the HMBP program must address the annual reporting requirement each year. For facilities eligible to use CERS certification, certification may satisfy the annual requirement, while a full HMBP submittal is generally required at least every three years.
Your facility’s prior CERS reporting dates determine the applicable timing.
Annual Certification vs. Full Submittal
ANNUAL CERTIFICATION
For eligible facilities whose existing HMBP information remains accurate, CERS allows the existing information to be certified annually.
FULL HMBP SUBMITTAL
A full submittal requires reviewing the Facility Information, Hazardous Materials Inventory, and Emergency Response & Training Plans elements, updating them as needed, and submitting them together.

Changed Something During the Year?
Certain changes can require the HMBP to be updated outside the normal annual timing. If significant facility, inventory, ownership, location, or operational changes have occurred, JG Hazmat will review whether the work remains within the standard service or requires a different scope.
CERS Not Accepted or Inspection Corrections?
If your CERS submittal was Not Accepted or an inspection identified CERS/HMBP deficiencies, start with a correction review. JG Hazmat will determine whether the requested work falls within its services. If the complete inspection report or regulator comments are needed to determine scope, we will request them by email.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is CERS/HMBP due in San Diego County?
San Diego County does not use one universal January-to-March filing period. Annual timing follows the facility’s reporting history, so the applicable due timing depends on the facility’s existing CERS/HMBP record.
What is the difference between annual certification and a full HMBP submittal?
Annual certification is used for eligible facilities when the existing HMBP information remains accurate. A full HMBP submittal involves reviewing and resubmitting the required information when the applicable reporting interval or facility changes require it.

Can JG Hazmat help if my CERS submittal was Not Accepted?
Potentially. Start with a Correction Review and JG Hazmat will determine whether the CERS/HMBP issue falls within its services. If the complete correction notice, regulator comments, or inspection report is needed to determine scope, we will request it by email.
