Can generators use the e-Manifest system to keep records of their manifests?
Yes. Generators that have registered with e-Manifest may elect to use their e-Manifest account to store and retrieve their manifest copies.
For electronic manifest users, all manifest copies will be available in the system for viewing and inspection.
For paper manifest users, the image file of the final manifest copy signed by the receiving facility will be uploaded to e-Manifest, and copies of these final manifest image files will be available for registered generators to view and retrieve.
Also, under the federal manifest regulations, the generator’s initial paper copy may be discarded and replaced by the final manifest copy when returned to the generator by the receiving facility. Thus, registered generators can use e-Manifest to meet their recordkeeping requirements with respect to the image file copy of the final manifest, and can also discard any corresponding paper copy of the initial manifest, once the image file of the final manifest is available in their account.
Note, however, that this policy (discarding the initial paper copy) does not apply to generators that use the hybrid manifest. Such generators must retain their initial paper copy among their records for the entire 3-year record retention period, since this initial, paper copy is the only copy of the manifest that will include the generator’s signature on the generator/offeror certification. Thus, it must be retained for completeness.
