## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### What You Can Extract

- EPA registry ID, facility name, address, city, state, ZIP, county, and EPA region
- Active flag and current compliance status
- Inspection counts, last inspection date, formal action counts, and total penalties
- Air, wastewater/NPDES, hazardous waste/RCRA, TRI, and GHG flags
- Latitude and longitude when available

### Common Use Cases

- Screen industrial facilities for environmental compliance history
- Build ESG and vendor-risk research datasets
- Monitor facilities by state, city, or company/facility name
- Feed EPA ECHO facility records into due diligence dashboards or AI agents

### SEO Keywords

EPA ECHO scraper, EPA facility compliance API, environmental compliance data, ECHO facility search scraper, industrial facility due diligence, EPA penalties data.

### Example Input

```json
{
  "state": "CA",
  "city": "",
  "facilityName": "",

}
```

### Pricing Recommendation

Launch at $3-$4 per 1,000 facility rows. Raise toward $5-$7 per 1,000 rows if ESG, compliance, or industrial due-diligence users show repeat runs.

// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("neuton/epa-echo-facilities-compliance-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
