First Email
First Email
Confirmation of Receipt Email (also known as First Email): The email sent by the Pesticide Reporting Service Bureau which indicates that your report submission has been received.  It contains a list of the files we received, your submission number and a preliminary assessment of whether your report meetsour specifications.  For reports submitted via the web and the PRL reporting software the email is sent immediately.  For emailed reports the receipt email will generally be sent by the next business day during the peak reporting season (roughly mid-December through early February); at other times of the year, it will be sent within a few days.  Receipt emails are not usually sent for mailed or FTPed reports.

Identity File: The identity.txt contains the identity and contact information that you enter into our reporting software and some third-party software products.  You can also create it yourself.  Our software stores the file in the report folder.  Reports that are submitted via email or electronic reports which are mailed to the NYSDEC should include this file.

Note

There is no need to attach the identity file to reports submitted via the web or using the PRL reporting software.

Report Folder
Report Folder
Report Folder (also known as Data Directory): The default folder for storing report files that you save and the identity.txt file containing the information entered on the Registration form.  The folder name is PRLyyyy (where “yyyy” is the report year, for ex. PRL2014) and it is created by the PRL Reporting Software Options A, B, and C.  A separate report folder is created for each report year.  You may store your files in another location, but the identity.txt is always saved in the report folder.  We strongly recommend saving to the current report folder, which is the default location used by our software.
