Shared Enterprise Geodata and Services (SEGS) provides an EPA-curated collection of recommended geodata assets that are nationally relevant and support the Agency’s mission to protect human health and the environment. By connecting EPA users with curated datasets and promoting service reuse, SEGS aims to enhance information access, reduce data-storage costs, and improve the consistency and quality of data at the US EPA.
This GIS dataset contains polygons depicting U.S. EPA Superfund Site boundaries. Site boundaries are polygons representing the footprint of a whole site, defined for purposes of this effort as the sum of all of the Operable Units and the current understanding of the full extent of contamination. For Federal Facility sites, the total site polygon may be the Facility boundary. As site investigation and remediation progress, OUs may be added, modified or refined, and the total site polygon should be updated accordingly. Superfund features are managed by regional teams of geospatial professionals and remedial program managers (RPMs), and SEGS harvests regional data on a weekly basis to refresh the national dataset and feature services.
