This layer represents electric power transmission lines. Transmission Lines are the system of structures, wires, insulators and associated hardware that carry electric energy from one point to another in an electric power system. Lines are operated at relatively high voltages varying from 69 kV up to 765 kV, and are capable of transmitting large quantities of electricity over long distances. Underground transmission lines are included where sources were available.
Safe Drinking Water Information System Sites
This layer displays the locations of a subset of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Safe Drinking Water Information System (SDWIS) sites. The SDWIS contains information about public water systems and their violations of EPA’s drinking water regulations. Data can be accessed through the EPA’s Clip N Ship map application. For more information, please visit the Safe Drinking Water Information System web page.
Army Corps Floodwalls
This layer displays United States Army Core of Engineers surveyed Floodwalls. The USACE defines an Floodwall as a structure erected to protect areas from high river stages. For more information about USACE data, visit the National Levee Database.
Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID)
This layer displays the locations of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID) sites. The eGRID is a comprehensive source of data on the locations and environmental characteristics of almost all electric power generated in the United States. For more information, please visit the EPA eGRID web page.
Army Corps Enbankments
This layer displays United States Army Core of Engineers surveyed Embankments. The USACE defines an Embankment as the area of a floodplain from which flood water is excluded by the levee system. For more information about USACE data, visit the National Levee Database.
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
This layer displays the locations of regulated facilities that discharge pollutants into surface waters in the United States. Location and environmental characteristics about facilities requiring discharge permits is contained in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). Facilities requiring permits include industrial, municipal, and other facilities must obtain permits if their discharges go directly to surface waters (via discrete conveyances such as pipes or man-made ditches). Individual homes that are connected to a municipal system are not reported to the EPA. For more information, please visit the EPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System web page.
Power Plants
This layer shows the location of electricity generating power-plants in the U.S., the total capacity of each plant, and the primary fuel source.
Statistics of U.S. Businesses
These data include number of establishments and corresponding employment change for births, deaths, expansions, and contractions from 2015 to 2016. The data are presented by geographic area, industry, and enterprise employment size.
Ethanol Plants
This feature class/shapefile represents Ethanol Plants. An Ethanol Plant is a facility that uses various biomass source to produce ethanol for use as a fuel.
Uninsured Population by County
Layer displays information about the insurance status of the population age 0-64. The data are from the 2018 Small Area Health Insurance Estimates, released by the US Census Bureau on April 09, 2020.
