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_facilitiesto 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_reportto fetch a comprehensive compliance history, including violations and enforcement actions for a specific ID. - Effluent Analysis — Access
get_effluent_chartto retrieve dynamic data on permitted wastewater discharge limits and actual releases. - Drinking Water Safety — Query
search_drinking_water_systemsto monitor public water systems regulated under the SDWA.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- No complex API keys are required for public ECHO web services (enter 'PUBLIC' in the token field)
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
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.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
