About

Knowledge is power.

Knowledge is power. FencelineData.org shifts the balance of power from chemical producers to journalists, community members and advocates who can hold them accountable. This tool provides facility-level information about toxic substances made, used and disposed of in the United States for facilities that report to the Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxics Release Inventory. It has data from the EPA’s TRI, Greenhouse Gas Reporting System (GHGRP) and Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) programs. Search for facilities by ZIP code, substance or parent company to learn how your community is affected.
