Welcome to the Sector Facility Indexing Project
(SFIP) home page. SFIP brings together environmental and other
information from a number of data systems to produce facility-level
profiles for five industry sectors (petroleum refining, iron
and steel production, primary nonferrous metal refining and
smelting, pulp manufacturing, and automobile assembly) and
a subset of major federal facilities. SFIP information relates
to compliance and inspection history, chemical releases and
spills, demographics of the surrounding population and production.(EPA's
Data
Systems area also includes information on over a dozen
other compliance and enforcement data systems.)
You can click on "Show
Me More" to read a more detailed introduction and
overview of SFIP. The SFIP Hotline, at (617) 520-3015, is
also available to assist users with questions about SFIP and
the data it presents.
The website is organized into the following pages, which
