DEC Launches New ‘DECinfo Locator’
to Increase Transparency and Access to Data Reports
DEC recently launched DECinfo Locator, an interactive map that provides access to DEC documents and public data about New York's environment and outdoor recreation resources. This first-of-its-kind DEC mapping application generates results specific to locations across the state and includes 50 interactive data layers. Several information layers can be active at the same time, allowing users to see the many ways DEC is working to protect and enhance the state’s environment and recreational opportunities.
Among other uses, the public can:
- Download State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permits for individual facilities
- Find basic details for Multi-Sector General Permits (MSGP)
- Find permit number and links to additional information for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s)
- Download reports and fact sheets, such as: water quality, aquatic toxicity monitoring, and aquatic biological monitoring
- Waterbody assessment information for all lakes, rivers, streams, estuaries and coastlines
To access the mapping application, visit the DECinfo Locator web page. Learn more about its features from the DECinfo Locator Tutorial on YouTube.
