of January in each year. The reconciliation process must include resolving any discrepancies
between the National Source Tracking System and the actual inventory by filing the reports

System by January 31, 2009. The information may be submitted by using any of the methods
identified by 105 CMR 120.290(F)(1) through (4). The initial inventory report must include the
