Ask with this source
A prompt for your agent that names this source and how to call it through the crw MCP.
Facilities by ZIP code
Use EPA Envirofacts (epafacts) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Facilities by ZIP code" (facilities-by-zip). You have a US ZIP code and want the EPA-regulated facilities located there across all programmes. Example options: zip=60601. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "epafacts" and capability "facilities-by-zip". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
Superfund sites by state
Use EPA Envirofacts (epafacts) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "Superfund sites by state" (superfund-sites). You want the Superfund (SEMS) cleanup sites recorded in a given US state. Example options: state=NJ. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "epafacts" and capability "superfund-sites". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
TRI facilities by state
Use EPA Envirofacts (epafacts) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "TRI facilities by state" (tri-facilities). You want the industrial facilities that report toxic releases in a given US state. Example options: state=CA. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "epafacts" and capability "tri-facilities". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
TRI reporting forms by year
Use EPA Envirofacts (epafacts) from fastCRW Pergamon, capability "TRI reporting forms by year" (tri-reporting-forms). You want the chemical-by-chemical release reports filed under TRI for a given year. Example options: year=2022. Use the crw MCP tools: crw_find_data to confirm the source and its options, then crw_get_data with provider "epafacts" and capability "tri-reporting-forms". Tell me the credits used and cite the licence from the response. If the crw MCP tools are missing, install them with: npx -y crw-mcp install --api-key <your fastCRW API key>
