Using the site
The pages are free to read and link to. Nothing here is legal advice, an environmental assessment or a consumer report, and nothing replaces the EPA's current records.
The sources, and what they require
This site republishes public registers. Source by source: the licence it is published under, and the condition its publisher sets — read from the publisher's own terms page, on the date shown.
| Source | Licence | What the publisher requires |

⚠️ Not a consumer reporting agency
This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.), and nothing published or sold here is a consumer report.
You may not use this site, its pages, its search, its API or any dataset obtained from it, in whole or in part, as a factor in deciding a person's eligibility for:
- employment, promotion, reassignment or retention;
- credit or insurance underwriting;
- housing or tenancy;
- any other purpose covered by the FCRA.
Verifying that a licence exists, directly with the issuing authority, is a different act from screening a person — and where a decision about someone depends on it, the check belongs with a screening company that operates as a consumer reporting agency and carries the obligations that come with it.
Having your entry removed
If you are named on this site and would rather not be, write to us and we will remove you. You do not have to explain why, and we will not ask.
Two things this cannot do, and we say so plainly rather than let you find out later: it does not change the official register, which is where the record actually lives; and it does not remove you from anyone else's copy of the same public data.
