EN Vision Winter 1997 Page 3
Web sites can ID project haz-mat issuesThe internet's World Wide Web
(WWW) can be a valuable resource during
early project development for determining
whether hazardous materials will become
an issue. Several internet sites provide
listings of state and federal agency
regulated or registered sites.
These resources do not yet duplicate
the accuracy or mapping capability of
commercial vendors, but some
information is better than none. And Erin
Trujillo, of ENV's Pollution Prevention
and Abatement Section, says the
information available at these web
addresses can help determine whether
more thorough list searches from
commercial services are needed. For
instance, a search that turns up several
listings within project right of way may
call for the use of a more accurate
commercial mapping.
The following are summaries of each
site. More information and instructions are
at individual web sites.
TNRCC's LPST Query: http://
www.tnrcc. state.tx.us/waste/pst/rpr/
pstquery.htm
You may now query the data base
using the LPST ID number and obtain the
essential information about leaking
petroleum storage tanks (LPST), or
perform a search by either company or
city, or both using full or partial names for
the company or city. A search will return a
list of LPST numbers with the company
name, street address, and city. You can
print the resulting page as a reference,
then return to this query page and search
for detailed information by LPST
identification number.
This database was last updated Oct. 6,
1997, and contains information on 20,417
LPST sites. The information provided
consists of discovery and reporting dates,
priority and status, the initials of the
TNRCC case coordinator(s) if the case has
been assigned, the responsible party,
location, whether or not it is a federal
facility, county and county number, and
the TNRCC region number and city.
EPA's Envirofacts Query: http://
www.epa.gov/enviro/html/ef-query.html
Envirofacts is a relational database that
integrates data extracted from five major
facility- or site-based EPA program
systems using two integrating databases. It
also incorporates location information
from Envirofacts' Locational Reference
Tables to integrate these systems. You
may use the multi-system Envirofacts-- - - f: If .

The results of Envirofacts queries can
now be mapped using the new Query
