This layer displays the locations of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES) sites. ACRES stores information reported by EPA Brownfields grant recipients on brownfields properties assessed or cleaned up with grant funding as well … Continued
This layer displays the daily average concentration of ozone and the percentage of days with concetrations of ozone above the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 0.075 parts per million in 2015.
This layer displays the daily average concentration of fine particulate matter and the percentage of days with concetrations of fine particulate matter above the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 35.0 micrograms per cubic meter in 2016.
Layer displays the modelled non-cancer risk associated with air toxics exposure. A hazard index (HI) of 1 or lower means air toxics are unlikely to cause adverse noncancer health effects over a lifetime of exposure.
Layer displays the modelled cancer risk associated with air toxics exposure. Figures represents the liklihood of hazardous exposure per 1 million population.
The lead paint indicator is the percentage of occupied housing units built before 1960, calculated from the U.S. Census Bureau’s ACS 5-year summary estimates on age of housing stock. EJScreen uses age of housing stock as a surrogate for potential … Continued
The RMP facility proximity is reflective of the total count of RMP facilities in each block group within 5 km of the average resident in a block group, divided by distance, calculated as the population-weighted average of blocks in each … Continued
The ozone indicator in EJScreen reflects potential ozone exposure measured in terms of summer seasonal daily average maximum concentrations in an 8-hour period measured in parts per billion. Ozone information included in EJScreen highlights areas across the U.S. that are … Continued
The traffic proximity indicator is based on AADT count divided by distance in meters from the Census block centroid. The proximity score is based on the traffic within a search radius of 500 meters (or further if none is found … Continued
The UST indicator quantifies the relative risk of being affected by a LUST for a block group. The indicator is derived by the weighted sum of active LUSTs and sum of active and temporarily out of service USTs within a … Continued
