TOXMAP has improved location data

November 7, 2006

The EPA (http://www.epa.gov) recently released updated and more accurate TRI location data from its Facility Registry System (FRS) (http://www.epa.gov/frs/). TOXMAP has incorporated these changes, which correct many TRI location inaccuracies in the FRS. Such corrections will continue to be incorporated into TOXMAP as they become available.

See the TOXMAP FAQ about TRI location accuracy for more information.
