USER NOTES:

The data concern the location of facilities and sites that are regulated by, or of interest to, the EPA in conducting its regulatory mission. The information on the facilities and sites, including the locations, has been gathered from a number of sources. While EPA subjects the data to Quality Assurance (QA) procedures, the Agency cannot vouch for the reliability of all the data. Users of the data (or any portion thereof) may wish to verify its accuracy before use.

This view omits facilities without latitude/longitude coordinates. The geospatial tables from which the data are extracted contain 81% of the known universe of active records but does not contain exact point data for the remaining 19% of facilities.

GeoPlan relied on the integrity of the attribute information within the original data.

The purpose of this web feature service is to provide users with access to integrated facility information from FRS, limited to the subset of facilities that link to the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI). The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) contains information about releases and transfers of more than 650 toxic chemicals and compounds to the environment. https://www.epa.gov/enviro/tri-search-user-guide In general, chemicals covered by the TRI Program are those that cause: - Cancer or other chronic human health effects - Significant adverse acute human health effects - Significant adverse environmental effects Facilities that manufacture, process or otherwise use these chemicals in amounts above established levels must submit annual TRI reports on each chemical. The TRI chemical list doesn't include all toxic chemicals used in the U.S. https://www.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program/learn-about-toxics-release-inventory

Positional accuracy for the data set varies for individual features based on collection method and source scale. Actual horizontal positional accuracy for the data set is unknown.

Actual vertical positional accuracy for the data set is unknown. This data is provided 'as is' and its vertical positional accuracy has not been verified by GeoPlan

NONE. Please check sources, scale, accuracy, currentness and other available information. Please confirm that you are using the most recent copy of both data and metadata. Acknowledgement of the EPA would be appreciated.

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.

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EPA Process Steps: Data records contained within are a materialized view based on the EPA geospatial tables which are refreshed based on the record's Last_Reported_Date field. The view is based on a join of the facility site table and the interest table to include the universe of interest types per program system id. Data records that do not contain positional information (latitude and longitude values) are not in this view. Process Date: Unknown ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GeoPlan Center Process Steps: GeoPlan Center downloaded the spatial data (file geodatabase) from the following EPA Website on 20190624: EPA FRS Facilities File Geodatabase Download https://www.epa.gov/frs/geospatial-data-download-service FRS_INTERESTS_download.zip\FRS_INTERESTS.gdb\TRI New Files Were Posted on 06/03/2019 and represent data extracted from FRS on 06/03/2019. The feature dataset had Latitude and Longitude fields in the following projection: Original Projection: GCS_North_American_1983 WKID: 4269 Authority: EPSG Angular Unit: Degree (0.0174532925199433) Prime Meridian: Greenwich (0.0) Datum: D_North_American_1983 Spheroid: GRS_1980 Semimajor Axis: 6378137.0 Semiminor Axis: 6356752.314140356 Inverse Flattening: 298.257222101 The Add XY Data Tool was used to convert the table to a point layer. Next the data was reprojected to Albers NAD83 Harn. Next point errors located in the ocean were removed. GeoPlan downloaded the TRI tabular data from the following website, using the selection drop-downs of 2016 and Florida (FL) on 20190624. TRI Basic Data Files: Calendar Years 1987 - 2017 https://www.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program/tri-basic-data-files-calendar-years-1987-2017 This EnvirofactsRestAPI excel table was then loaded to a FGDB. A table join was then created between the TRI Current Basic Data database file and the EPA spatial data. A TRIFID summary table was created from the TRI Current Basic Data ID and this count information was used to populated the RELEASE field. A Clean Air Act Chemical summary table was created from the TRI Current Basic Data and this count information was used to populated the CAAREGCHEM field. The fields used to populate the CAAREGCHEM were CLASSIFICATION and CARCINOGEN Added LAT_DD and LONG_DD fields. Added MGRS field. Added GOOGLEMAP field. Added DESCRIPT field. Added FGDLAQDATE field. The final dataset was exported and named: epatri_2017 Process Date: 20190624 Dataset copied. Process Date: 20190707
