Facilities that Discharge to Water Point

This layer displays a point layer depicting Facilities that Discharge to Water indexed to NHDPlus version 2.1. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is used by EPA programs, regions, states, and water programs for monitoring water quality. Discharge of pollutants into waters of the United States is regulated under the NPDES, a mandated provision of the Clean Water Act. To assist with the regulation process, state and federal regulators use an information management system called the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS-NPDES). ICIS-NPDES stores data about NPDES facilities, permits, compliance status, and enforcement activities. ICIS-NPDES replaces the legacy Permit Compliance System (PCS). The NPDES permit program addresses water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants to waters of the United States.

303(d) Impaired Waterbodies

This layer displays impaired waterbodies, which means waterbodies not able to be used for certain purposes due to water quality from physical, chemical and biological factors.

Water Monitoring Locations

This layer displays GIS data from EPA Office of Water STORET Warehouse. Reach indexed NPDES locations comprise two basic types: facilities and pipes. For a given NPDES permit, the program may have locational information on the facility alone or specific pipe outfalls.

Homicide Mortality by County and Census Tract, 2023-24

This layer displays timely information on the estimated homicide mortality rate for counties and census tracts using provisional and final death data. Some census tracts are grouped to protect data privacy. Rates are modeled for areas with greater than 0 but fewer than 10 deaths in the report period.

Heat Index – Average Days Above 95th Percentile

This updated dataset reports the total number of days in which an extreme heat event was above the 95th percentile between 2020-2022 at the county and Census tract levels. Data were obtained from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Environmental Public Health Tracking Network (EPHTN).

Avian Flu Outbreaks

This layer displays the number of outbreaks of avian flu and the affected flock size by county since 2022. Data is updated weekly.

Maximum Temperature – Average Days Above 95 Degrees

This updated dataset reports the total number of days in which an extreme heat event was above 95 degrees between 2020-2022 at the county and Census Tract levels. Data were obtained from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Environmental Public Health Tracking Network (EPHTN).
