data exchange description
Network partners can use the Exchange Network to submit data to U.S. EPA's RCRAInfo system. RCRAInfo is EPA's national program management and inventory system about hazardous waste handlers.
You can find a great deal of additional information on the RCRAInfo exchange, including detailed submission instructions, on the RCRAInfo wiki page.
U.S. EPA has released a new version of the RCRAInfo database (version 5) to accommodate some modifications to the RCRA program. Final versions of the XML schema and other resources for this update are available below.
Version 5 is now available for test and production submissions for all RCRAInfo modules including:
- Handler
- Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement (CME)
- Permitting
- Corrective Action
- Financial Assurance
- GIS
For a list of CDX test and production endpoints, please visit the Exchange Network wiki.
If you encounter difficulties during the submission process, please contact Dwane Young at young.dwane@epa.gov.
Data Flow Implementation Guide – This guide provides a high-level overview of the data flow including advice about when to consider implementing the flow and a summary of planned improvements to the flow’s design and usability.
