EPA Facility Scraper — Violations & Penalties | $9.9/1K

EPA Facility Scraper — Violations, Enforcement & Penalties

Search US EPA regulated facilities by state. Returns compliance status, violation history, enforcement actions, and penalties across Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, RCRA, and Drinking Water programs.

What it does

This actor extracts structured public data via official/public endpoints — no login, no API key required from you. Results are returned as clean JSON dataset items, one row per record, with a parse_confidence field for quality.

Use cases

• Lead generation, market research, and competitive intelligence.
• Feeding pipelines, dashboards, and AI agents with fresh structured data.
• Monitoring changes over time on a schedule.

Input

Provide the search/query parameters (see the input schema). Bound the run with maxItems.

Fields returned

Each record includes the facility name and address, registry ID, current compliance status, counts of recent violations and formal enforcement actions, total assessed penalties, the regulatory programs in scope (Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, RCRA hazardous waste, Safe Drinking Water Act), and a parse_confidence score so you can filter on data quality.

Data source

Data comes from the EPA's official public compliance and enforcement records — the same authoritative source regulators publish — so results are accurate and require no credentials or scraping of locked pages.

Output

One dataset item per record with the key fields and parse_confidence. Export to JSON/CSV/Excel or pull via the Apify API/MCP. Schedule the actor to track compliance changes over time and feed alerts, dashboards, or AI agents with fresh structured environmental data.

💰 Pricing & how we compare

Pay-per-result (PPE): $9.90 / 1K facilities ($0.0099 each). You are billed per facility-record actually returned — plus the tiny apify-actor-start fee Apify waives for short runs. No subscription, no API key, no proxy fee on top.

Our edge: Official EPA public compliance data · violations + enforcement + penalties + programs · parse_confidence.

Pricing examples (pay only for what you get, minus Apify's 20%):

Volume	Cost
100 facilities	$0.99
1,000 facilities	$9.90
10,000 facilities	$99.00

How rivals price the same job (live Apify Store, checked 2026-06-09)

Actor	Their price	What they lack vs us
fortuitous_pirate/epa-echo-facilities	$0.01 / facility	we charm-undercut to $0.0099 + add parse_confidence
ryanclinton/epa-echo-search	$0.03 / result	3× our price
compute-edge/epa-echo-scraper	$0.004 / result	cheaper but 0 monthly users / unproven

Prices above are competitors' live Store prices at the time of writing; ours is set to sit just below the strongest comparable while returning richer, quality-scored data.
