- Abstract:
-
This data set contains locations of EPA-regulated air emissions facilities from the Locational Reference Tables (LRT) contained in the Envirofacts (EF) database. Information on air releases is contained in the Aerometric Information Retrieval System (AIRS), a computer-based repository for information about air pollution in the United States. This information comes from source reports by various stationary sources of air pollution, such as electric power plants, steel mills, factories, and universities, and provides information about the air pollutants they produce. In AIRS, these sources are known as facilities, and the part of AIRS associated with data about sources is called the AIRS Facility Subsystem, or AFS. The information in AFS is used by the states to prepare State Implementation Plans, to track the compliance status of point sources with various regulatory programs, and to report air emissions estimates for pollutants regulated under the Clean Air Act. Envirofacts air release information specifically relates to industrial plants and their components (stacks, points, and segments). This data provides valuable information not only about the industrial facilities, but about the chemicals they introduce into your local air. There is information available on managing operating permit application and renewals. You may use the Air Releases Query to retrieve selected data from the Envirofacts Database employing any combination of facility name, geographic location, and standard industrial classification. Additional Information is available at the EPA website <http://www.epa.gov/geospatial/> . This layer is an update to the epaafs_may11.shp.
- Purpose:
-
To assist in tracking the status of Air Emissions information. The information in
AFS is used by the states to prepare State Implementation Plans, to track the
compliance status of point sources with various regulatory programs, and to report
air emissions estimates for pollutants regulated under the Clean Air Act. Tabular
data (including point locations) can be accessed at

- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
FRS uses a best-pick algorithm to provide horizontal positional information. This
assigns the latitude and longitude with the best accuracy value to each facility.
Because information in FRS is collected across numerous states and programs,
positional accuracy for the data set varies for each individual feature and is stored
on a record-level basis. Overall horizontal positional accuracy for the entire data
set fluctuates as new information is received and is not estimated for the entire
data set within this record. For more information on accuracy of FRS locations,

On a monthly basis, the FRS_FACILITY_SITE_SDE sde layer is created from
FRS_FACILITY_SITE table. The layer has QA/QC performed for county validation
and a 100 km flag. After QA/QC is performed, information is made available to
Envirofacts, where it is extracted and made available as a service on
geodata.epa.gov. For more information about the data provided within the

The Florida Geographic Data Library is a collection of Geospatial Data
compiled by the University of Florida GeoPlan Center with support from
the Florida Department of Transportation. GIS data available in FGDL is
collected from various state, federal, and other agencies (data sources)
who are data stewards, producers, or publishers. The data available in
FGDL may not be the most current version of the data offered by the
data source. University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no guarantees
about the currentness of the data and suggests that data users check
with the data source to see if more recent versions of the data exist.
Furthermore, the GIS data available in the FGDL are provided 'as is'.
The University of Florida GeoPlan Center makes no warranties, guaranties
or representations as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the data
provided by the data sources. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
makes no representations or warranties about the quality or suitability
of the materials, either expressly or implied, including but not limited
to any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, or non-infringement. The University of Florida GeoPlan Center
shall not be liable for any damages suffered as a result of using,
modifying, contributing or distributing the materials.
A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets
are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes.
Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
county level.
1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such
as property parcel boundaries.
1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
multi-county or regional level.
1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be
considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data
before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been
made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional
information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact
section of this documentation. For more information regarding
scale and accuracy, see our webpage at:
