EPA FRS: Facility Response Plan (FRP) Oil Spill Prevention Locations

A subset of the EPA's Facility Registry System containing location and identification data for facilities subject to oil spill prevention and response regulations. The data is integrated from EPA national programs, other federal agencies, and State and tribal records, providing a centrally managed source. These facilities are designated as 'substantial harm' due to the quantities of oil stored and their specific characteristics.

Use Cases

• Mapping facilities subject to oil spill response plans based on geospatial location data.
• Analyzing the distribution of 'substantial harm' facilities based on facility characteristics.
• Cross-referencing facility data from multiple regulatory systems for compliance monitoring.

Strengths

• Data is integrated from EPA's national program systems, other federal agencies, and State/tribal records, suggesting a multi-source verification process.
• Facilities are geospatially located, enabling map-based analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The data is marked as sensitive and restricted to internal EPA use, limiting public accessibility.
