FRS Physical Data Model

Researcher? Need to understand the model structure and relationships? Please contact us at the FRS Request Form and request a data model overview copy and your goals. This will help determine which schema information to share.

The FRS data model powers the communication between multiple EPA program systems. You can query FRS data from Envirofacts, ECHO, and FRS Query. Note - the underlying EPA legacy data model is being reviewed for simplification and documentation is in the process of being updated.

FRS Model Information

The FRS model fields are partially described by the FRS Submit API Swagger and FRS Model Data Dictionary.
