Summary

The purpose of this web feature service is to provide users with access to information stored in FRS. The information in FRS may be used to track sites, facilities, or areas of environmental interest.

This feature service consists of location and facility identification information from EPA's Facility Registry Service (FRS) for all sites that are available in the FRS individual feature layers. Although we have taken all available measures to optimize performance, because this service contains the full universe of FRS regulated facilities, the total data volume may lead to slow performance for many applications. We strongly recommend choosing from one of the feature services below which comprise the FRS major program databases, including: 
The Facility Registry Service (FRS) identifies and geospatially locates facilities, sites or places subject to environmental regulations or of environmental interest. Using vigorous verification and data management procedures, FRS integrates facility data from EPA's national program systems, other federal agencies, and State and tribal master facility records and provides EPA with a centrally managed, single source of comprehensive and authoritative information on facilities. This data set contains the FRS facilities that link to the programs listed above once the program data has been integrated into the FRS database. Additional information on FRS is available at the EPA website https://www.epa.gov/frs. EPA also publishes a download package that includes a file geodatabase, Esri ArcMap map document and an XML file of this metadata record and is refreshed on the same cycle as this service. Full FGDC metadata records for each layer are contained in the database.
