The CDC Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry has launched the Environmental Justice Index mapping tool, which ranks census tracts by their relative environmental burden and social vulnerability. When you click on a tract, a table pops up with data about the population, pollution, health, and the built environment that can be useful in preparing your EPA Brownfields Grant application.
To explore the tool click this LINK.
NYSDEC has released Ambient Water Quality Guidance Values for PFOA, PFOS, and 1,4-Dioxane, which regulate how much of these chemicals can be present in industrial discharge. NY already has Maximum Contaminant Levels to protect drinking water sources.
