<metadata xml:lang="en"><idinfo><native>Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 3; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.3000</native><descript><abstract>This data set represents the location of sites within North Carolina that are regulated by the hazardous waste portions of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).  This includes Large Quantity Generators, Small Quantity Generators, Transporters of Hazardous Waste, permitted treatment, storage or disposal (TSD) facilities and TSD facilities that are under an Order or a Consent Agreement.  (Note: facilities that are Conditionally Exempt Small Quanitity Generators may also be included if they are also a Transporter or TSD facility.)  The data is extracted from the EPA RCRAInfo database.  The State of North Carolina, Division of Waste Management, Hazardous Waste Section is the implementer of record for this data.  The Hazardous Waste Section is authorized by EPA to administer the hazardous waste program.</abstract><purpose>The purpose of this data set is to provide a geographic representation of the location of all active hazardous waste sites as regulated by the NC Hazardous Waste Section. This dataset is intended for general planning and mapping purposes (rather than highly accurate analytical or public health purposes).</purpose><supplinf>Where indicated, the location of the facilities is based on geocoding of address information that is submitted when a facility requests an EPA Identification number (EPA ID).  The EPA ID is a location based number and it does not travel with the facility.</supplinf></descript><citation><citeinfo><title>HW_Sites</title><geoform>vector digital data</geoform><onlink>http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wm/hw</onlink><origin>NC DENR, Division of Waste Management, Hazardous Waste Section</origin><pubinfo><publish>North Carolina Division of Waste Management Hazardous Waste Section</publish><pubplace>Raleigh, NC</pubplace></pubinfo><pubdate>20111212</pubdate><onlink>http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wm/gis/data</onlink></citeinfo></citation><spdom><bounding><westbc>-84.089128</westbc><eastbc>-75.621821</eastbc><northbc>36.530886</northbc><southbc>33.896474</southbc></bounding></spdom><keywords><theme><themekt>ISO 19115 Topic Category</themekt><themekey>environment</themekey><themekey>geoscientificInformation</themekey><themekey>health</themekey><themekey>location</themekey></theme><theme><themekt>EPA GIS Keyword Thesaurus</themekt><themekey>Cleanup</themekey><themekey>Compliance</themekey><themekey>Conservation</themekey><themekey>Contaminant</themekey><themekey>Disaster</themekey><themekey>Drinking Water</themekey><themekey>Emergency</themekey><themekey>Environment</themekey><themekey>Exposure</themekey><themekey>Facilities</themekey><themekey>Ground Water</themekey><themekey>Hazards</themekey><themekey>Health</themekey><themekey>Human</themekey><themekey>Impact</themekey><themekey>Indicator</themekey><themekey>Inspections</themekey><themekey>Land</themekey><themekey>Management</themekey><themekey>Monitoring</themekey><themekey>Regulatory</themekey><themekey>Remediation</themekey><themekey>Response</themekey><themekey>Risk</themekey><themekey>Sites</themekey><themekey>Spills</themekey><themekey>Toxics</themekey></theme><place><placekt>None</placekt><placekey>North Carolina</placekey></place><theme><themekt>User</themekt><themekey>Division of Waste Management</themekey><themekey>DWM</themekey><themekey>Hazardous Waste</themekey><themekey>NC DENR</themekey><themekey>North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources</themekey></theme></keywords><timeperd><current>20120201</current><timeinfo><sngdate><caldate>20120201</caldate></sngdate></timeinfo></timeperd><status><progress>Complete</progress><update>Quarterly</update></status><accconst>None.</accconst><useconst>None.
