Replication Data for: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Risk-Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI) Current Version, Shapefiles
Abstract
Data for United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Risk Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI) model Disaggregated Grid Cell, Shapefiles (data version 2022). Original data were downloaded 22 July 2025 from https://gaftp.epa.gov/RSEI/Shapefiles/. The following is from: <https://www.epa.gov/rsei/ways-get-rsei-results> RSEI crosswalks and shapefiles. RSEI crosswalks allow you to transpose data from the RSEI grid-based system to Census blocks, and shapefiles provide grid geometry for mapping RSEI Geographic Microdata. Both sets of files are available on the RSEI ftp site.

Notes More from: <https://www.epa.gov/rsei/ways-get-rsei-results> What's new in the latest version of RSEI: Version 2.3.12 (RY 2022) Each new version of RSEI incorporates the latest Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data, as well as changes to the input data and the methodology used to process the data and present the results. The following changes were made in Version 2.3.12, released in March 2024: ● Includes TRI reporting years 1988-2022. ● Toxicity weights have been updated with the most recent toxicity data. ● Stack parameters have been improved. Data from the 2020 NEI are used along with the 2005, 2008, 2011, 2014, and 2017 NEI. ● Census data from the 2020 U.S. decennial census are now used to create population estimates at the RSEI grid-cell level, in addition to decennial census data from 1990, 2000, and 2010. 14.
