EPA ECHO (Enforcement & Compliance)

What is the EPA ECHO (Enforcement & Compliance) MCP Server?

Connect to the EPA ECHO (Enforcement and Compliance History Online) database to retrieve real-time environmental data. This server allows AI agents to query millions of records regarding facility compliance with the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and hazardous waste regulations.

What you can do

  • Multi-Program Search — Use search_all_facilities to find entities across all environmental programs using names, cities, or zip codes.
  • Media-Specific Audits — Narrow down searches to Air (search_air_facilities), Water (search_water_facilities), or Hazardous Waste (search_hazardous_waste_facilities) to find specific permit holders.
  • Detailed Facility Reporting — Use get_detailed_facility_report to fetch a comprehensive compliance history, including violations and enforcement actions for a specific ID.
  • Effluent Analysis — Access get_effluent_chart to retrieve dynamic data on permitted wastewater discharge limits and actual releases.
  • Drinking Water Safety — Query search_drinking_water_systems to monitor public water systems regulated under the SDWA.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. No complex API keys are required for public ECHO web services (enter 'PUBLIC' in the token field)
  3. Start auditing environmental records from your AI client

Who is this for?

  • Environmental Researchers — quickly aggregate facility data across different states and regions.
  • Compliance Officers — monitor permit statuses and historical violations without manual portal navigation.
  • Legal Professionals — retrieve official enforcement records and effluent charts for litigation or due diligence.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How can I get the full compliance history for a specific facility?

Use the get_detailed_facility_report tool with the specific Facility ID (p_id). This returns a comprehensive 'Detailed Facility Report' (DFR) covering all environmental programs, violations, and inspections.

02

Can I search for facilities by city or state?

Yes! Tools like search_all_facilities or search_water_facilities accept p_ct (City) and p_st (State abbreviation) parameters to filter results geographically.

03

What information is included in the effluent charts?

The get_effluent_chart tool provides data on permitted discharge limits, actual measured releases, and any exceedances or violations for Clean Water Act (NPDES) permits.

04

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.

05

Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?

Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.

06

How do I list all connected MCP servers?

Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
