- “What does Environmental Analysis have for the area or asset I'm working on?”
- “Pull the most recent Environmental Analysis records and put them in a table.”
- “What does Environmental Analysis cover, and how fresh is the data?”
About this source
Combined environmental analysis for oil & gas regulatory compliance. Aggregates data from multiple government sources: - USFWS National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) - Section 404 permit requirements - FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) - Flood zone analysis - USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) - Water feature setbacks - USDA NRCS Soil Data Access (SDA) - Soil properties CRITICAL USAGE RULES: 1. All APIs are free government services - NO authentication required 2. Use analyzeLocation() for comprehensive site analysis 3. Use checkWellSite() for regulatory constraint checks 4. Coordinates are latitude/longitude in WGS84 (EPSG:4326)

Caveats
- ⚠ This is a screening result, not a jurisdictional wetland delineation, floodplain determination, or legal setback opinion.
- ⚠ Each source reports availability independently; null means unknown and must never be interpreted as absence.
- ⚠ ArcGIS services may impose transfer limits, so large radii are not guaranteed exhaustive.
