EPA FRS RBLC: Facility Locations Linked to Air Pollution Technology Records

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency data integrates facility location information with records from the RACT/BACT/LAER Clearinghouse (RBLC). The RBLC contains case-specific information on air pollution control technologies required for stationary sources. This subset links EPA's Facility Registry Service (FRS) geospatial facility data to RBLC technology records.

Use Cases

• Map facilities subject to specific air pollution control technologies based on RBLC linkage.
• Analyze geographic distribution of regulated stationary sources based on FRS location data.
• Cross-reference facility identification information with technology case records.
• Support compliance monitoring by linking facility sites to required control technology standards.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
• FRS uses vigorous verification and data management procedures to integrate facility data.
• Links facility geospatial data to specific air pollution technology records (RACT, BACT, LAER).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
