Description:
Abstract:
The EnvironPollution_ENVPTS2001 data layer is based on the U.S. EPA's Envirofacts point shapefile. The data was provided to VCGI by the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources (ANR).
The Envirofacts (EF) point shapefile layer in the National Shapefile Repository provides locations of EPA-regulated facilities from the Envirofacts Oracle table LRT_EF_COVERAGE_SRC, which is located within the Locational Reference Tables (LRT) contained in the Envirofacts Oracle Database. The spatial extent for this point shapefile is the conterminous U.S., Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Facility data from various EPA program system tables are loaded into the LRT_EF_COVERAGE_SRC table. Only coordinate pairs with the highest accuracy values will represent each facility. The Envirofacts point shapefile contains data from the following EPA program systems:
AFS - Aerometric Information Retrieval System (AIRS) Facility Subsystem PCS - Permit Compliance System TRIS - Toxic Release Inventory System CERCLIS - Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System RCRIS - Resource Conservation and Recovery Information System BRS - Biennial Reporting System
Note: You can download additional facility information from <http://www.epa.gov/enviro>.
Purpose:
The ENVPTS2001 layer provides Geographic Information System (GIS) applications with a valuable data layer for facilities regulated by EPA in the State of Vermont.

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The latitude/longitude attribute values that come from the program system databases may or may not be populated. Latitude/longitude values of blanks or zeros are replaced in the coverage by associating the latitude/longitude values from another program facility reporting that facility as defined by the Facility Linkage Application (FLA) linkage identifier (facility_uin). In these cases, two attribute fields (source_acrnm and source_id) in the LRT will be populated by the acronym name and the code of the EPA program system from which the latitude/longitude values were borrowed.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The Envirofacts point coverage is created by the following process. The unique identifiers and positional information is extracted from the Oracle Spatial EF_LAYER, which is registered through ArcSDE. The data are then converted to unprojected ArcView Shapefiles using the ArcSDE utility 'sde2shp' and then inserted into the National Shapefile Repository at the county and state levels for each state.
