MCP Server for EPA ECHO

16 tools

EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) reports US facility-level environmental compliance: inspections, violations, penalties and enforcement actions under the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act and RCRA. Facility search needs no key; some output formats (map, GeoJSON, clustered) need a QueryID from a prior search rather than a fresh key.
