The analyst downloaded the raw data used to develop \r\nthis dataset from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). \r\nPursuant to statutory guidelines under the Natural Resources and Environmental \r\nProtection Act (NREPA), the DEQ is required to \r\n\u201cpost on its website an inventory \r\nof residential closures and a separate inventory of other known \r\nfacilities.\u201d For the \r\npurposes of this dataset, \r\n\u201cresidential \r\nclosures\u201dhave not been \r\nincluded; these were submitted to the DEQ in a No Further Action Report and \r\nsatisfy remediation standards for Residential Facilities. \r\nAll\u201cother known facilities\u201d \r\navailable are included in the Inventory of Facilities \r\ndataset that serves as the foundation for this layer.
The Inventory of Facilities includes all locations \r\nwhere there have been a release of hazardous substances as defined under \r\nmultiple subsets of NREPA. Although this list is commonly referred to as \r\nBrownfields, it can contain other types of designations including but not \r\nlimited to: Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUST), Baseline Environmental \r\nSite Assessments (BEAs) and Environmental Site Assessments. Each of these \r\ndesignations requires further action, and the sites are pursuing cleanup in \r\nconjunction with the DEQ.
It is also important to mention that this inventory \r\ndoes not necessarily include every facility that is subject to \r\nNREPA\u2019s guidelines, since owners \r\nare not required to inform the DEQ about the facilities and can pursue cleanup \r\nindependently. Facilities that are not known to the DEQ are not on the \r\ninventory, nor are locations with releases that resulted in little or no \r\nenvironmental impact.
