EPA to Decommission Node Relay Service; Please Update Your Data Flow Endpoints 

June 9, 2020

On June 19, 2020, U.S. EPA’s Central Data Exchange (CDX) will be decommissioning one of its Exchange Network Node endpoints in order to increase operational efficiency and reduce maintenance costs. The retiring endpoint is associated with a seldom used service called the Node Relay located at https://noderelay.epa.gov/Node2/Node2WS.svc. The Node Relay endpoint was only used by a very limited number of partners for two active data flows, including Facility Identification 3.0  and the Emissions Inventory System (EIS).

Most partner agencies will not be impacted by this change. If you are still pointing your data flows to submit to the Node Relay endpoint, please update your settings to use https://node2.epa.gov/Node2WS.svc. Please make this change by June 19, 2020. After that date, the Node Relay endpoint will be decommissioned and data flows using that endpoint will fail. As a reminder, you can find a complete list of CDX Node endpoints for each data flow on the Exchange Network website. 

If you have any questions or need support, please contact the Exchange Network Node Help Desk at [email protected].

EPA to Host Webinar on Citizen Science Activities

April 9, 2020

U.S. EPA’s Office of Research and Development will be hosting a webinar on EPA’s Citizen Science activities on April 15, 2020 from 3:00 – 4:00 PM EDT. Please see the details below for more information.

To join this webinar, please register at: https://epawebconferencing.acms.com/tools_citizen_science_apr2020/event/registration.html

With the advent of new technologies for environmental monitoring and tools for sharing information, community volunteers are more engaged than ever before in collecting environmental data, and many environmental agencies are using these data. A major challenge is ensuring the quality of the data collected by citizen science organizations. One of the keys to breaking down this barrier is a Quality Assurance Project Plan. EPA’s Handbook for Citizen Science Quality Assurance and Documentation is for organizations that are starting or growing a citizen science project, and where transparency in the scientific methods for collecting the data are central to the outcome of the project.
 
This webinar will provide an overview of citizen science at the Agency and showcase several EPA citizen science activities that involve partnerships with state, tribal and local governments on a diversity of issues, including 1) monitoring for cyanobacteria in waterbodies, 2) building and operating “real-time,” low-cost water quality sensors in Georgia; 3) demonstration of a new test method for community mapping of radon in Puerto Rico; 4) the Los Angeles Public Library air sensor loan program; and 5) using citizen science to analyze underwater video in the Great Lakes. For more information, visit EPA’s Citizen Science webpage.

EE2020 Has Been Cancelled Due to COVID-19 Pandemic

March 31, 2020

This message contains very important information about EE2020, the E-Enterprise National Meeting. After carefully weighing the situation, the EE2020 meeting chairs and other leaders in the E-Enterprise and Exchange Network governance have concluded that we cannot safely conduct an in-person meeting on May 12-14, 2020.  Regrettably, we must cancel EE2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is certainly disappointing and unwelcome news, but it is clearly the right thing to do. We are committed to working with our amazing lineup of speakers to explore new options for sharing everyone’s work and stories. While a rescheduled in-person meeting will be our ultimate goal, we cannot yet say when that would be feasible. In the days and weeks ahead, we will be  considering options for delivering some of the planned content virtually via webinars. We kindly ask for your patience while we undertake a process to determine the appropriate approach and timing. Once we have more information to share, we will be back in touch with more details.

We will automatically cancel existing EE2020 meeting registrations. If you have already made travel arrangements with an airline or the hotel, please take steps to cancel those. The hotel will accept cancellations without penalty up to 72 hours in advance of your arrival date. Most airlines have implemented flexible cancellation policies and have waived cancellation fees and penalties.  

We promise to make the most of this unfortunate situation and find alternate ways for our community to connect. In the meantime, please take care of yourselves, your loved ones, and the people in your community. Thank you and be well.

Peer Sharing Opportunity on Low-Code Development: Join Us for a March 24 Open Call

March 12, 2020

March 24, 2020 from 1-2:30 pm Eastern

Agencies are increasingly exploring low-code approaches to building software that powers the business of environmental protection. Low-code tools have the potential to help reduce an agency’s dependence on traditional coding and programming, open up application development to a wider range of people, and accelerate the delivery of new tools and software. The transition also requires new skills and approaches to governance. 

Please join us on March 24, 2020 for an open call focused on the use of low-code software development within environmental agencies. This call provides a peer sharing opportunity designed for E-Enterprise partners to learn from each other and share their experiences applying low-code methods to their work. Representatives from the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment will join the call to talk about their own work in this space. These presentations will be followed by a discussion period where participants can engage with each other, ask questions, and share their own experiences, challenges and lessons learned.

This call is open to all members of the E-Enterprise community. We would particularly like to encourage those planning to attend the EE2020 National Meeting (https://www.eenationalmeeting.net/) in May to join in preparation for more low-code discussions at the conference.

Two New Versions of the Water Quality Exchange (WQX) Data Flow Coming Soon

March 2, 2020

Two new versions of the Water Quality Exchange (WQX) data flow are now available for review, but not yet in production. U.S. EPA’s Office of Water anticipates that final versions will be available in March 2020. States, tribes, and other WQX users should review these new versions in preparation for production release on March 31, 2020.

The new versions include a minor version upgrade to Version 2.2 and also a major version upgrade to Version 3.0. EPA will continue to support existing versions of the WQX data flow. You can visit the Exchange Network website at https://www.exchangenetwork.net/data-exchange/wqx/ to download and review resources for these two new versions, including XML schemas and updated Flow Configuration Documents and Data Exchange Templates.

WQX Version 2.2 is 100% backwards compatible with v2.1 and provides expanded data element lengths for various key description text type elements. See the schema change log v2.2 (final) and Data Exchange Template v2.2 (final) for more details. 

Version 3.0 adopts new elements, some of which are not backwards compatible with version 2.1. See the schema change log v3.0 (final) and Data Exchange Template v3.0 (final) for more details. Version 3.0 also contains changes that will improve quality assurance through best practices and business rules. Good QA/QC ensures that your data can be reused by another user for analysis and helps safeguard against misuse. New version 3.0 supported QA/QC business rules are outlined in both the WQX 3.0 Flow Configuration Document and guidance documents at the WQX website (https://www.epa.gov/waterdata/water-quality-data-wqx).

The Water Quality Exchange (WQX) data flow allows Exchange Network Partners to share ambient water quality data with EPA and with the Water Quality Portal (https://www.waterqualitydata.us/). The Water Quality Portal is the nation’s largest source for water quality monitoring data and contains over 340 million water quality data records data from 400 federal, state, tribal and other partners.

EPA Publishes Exchange Network Grant Solicitation Notice - With New Applicant Guidance Tools

February 5, 2020

The FY 2020 National Environmental Information Exchange Network Grant Program Solicitation Notice is now available at https://www.epa.gov/exchangenetwork/fy-2020-exchange-network-grant-solicitation-notice.  Applications are due to EPA by 11:59 PM Eastern Time, Wednesday, March 25, 2020. Information on stakeholder webinars will be provided shortly.

The primary outcome expected from Exchange Network (EN) assistance agreements is improved access to, and exchange of, high-quality environmental data from public and private sector sources. With this outcome in mind, an application’s project goals and outputs should align with and support one or more EN program priorities. Applicants are also highly encouraged to review the new FY20 Solicitation Notice in full, as updates have been made throughout the document. Applicants should also note that optional templates for the cover letter, project narrative, and budget narrative have been provided in the appendices.

In FY 2020, EPA expects to award over $8 million for 20-30 assistance agreements for EN projects. Most awards will be in the $50,000 to $300,000 range. Awards for an individual assistance agreements cannot exceed $200,000. EPA may make a limited number of awards to qualifying collaborative, partnership assistance agreements, with project budgets of $400,000 or less. The exact number of assistance agreements will depend on the final amount of EPA’s appropriation for the EN grant program, the number of applications submitted to EPA by the application deadline, the budget amounts requested, and the outcome of application reviews.

EPA only accepts project proposals for EN assistance agreements submitted electronically through Grants.gov, unless applicants have a waiver. EPA anticipates that it will announce selection decisions in or around August 2020, and tentatively plans to issue awards by September 30, 2020.

And you can choose from a variety of different formats–everything from a traditional podium presentation to brief 5-minute lightning talks, even a short video! 

 

Tell Us About Your Training Priorities

We know that meeting attendees place a lot of value on practical training and workshops. We hope to feature a number of these opportunities at EE2020 and the meeting chairs would like your input on the topics that would be most valuable. Please visit the EE2020 Training Questionnaire by January 17, 2020 to tell us about your priorities and interests so we can build the most engaging program possible. You’ll only need 2 minutes!
