R2 PCS FACILITY GIS LAYER
Description:
The Permit and Compliance System (PCS) contains data on the National Polution Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) permit-holding facilities. This includes information on the permitted facility, compliance schedule, outfall schedule, permit limits, discharge monitoring reports, enforcement actions and violations. The Region 2 PCS Facility Regulated Facility GIS layer contains unique facility records, each representing one or more unique permit records. This translates to one unique facility location with attributes consisting of identifying information, (name, address, Facility Registry System ID, PCS ID(s)), and locational information (latitude, longitude, and locational metadata). This information is supplied for each facility in Region 2 that has an existing record in the Envirofacts copy of the The Permit and Compliance System (PCS), and having locational coordinates. The locational data source for this and all R2 Regulated FACILITY and R2 Regulated PERMIT Layers is the Locational Reference Tables (LRT) database, of Envirofacts augmented by R2 Locational Data Improvement records that may not yet have been cycled into the LRT. The name and address information for all Region 2 GIS FACILITY layers is from the authoritative facility identification records of the Facility Registry System (FRS). The name and address information for all Region 2 GIS PERMIT layers is from the relevant PROGRAM SYSTEM identification records as found in Envirofacts.
