NPDES is the module of the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS).Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) Major dischargers are defined as facilities with design flows equal to or greater than one million gallons per day, or serve a population of 10,000 or more, or cause significant water quality impacts. Non-POTW discharges are classified as Major facilities on the basis of the number of points accumulated using a Rating worksheet, which evaluates the significance of a facility using several criteria, including toxic pollutant potential, flow volume, and water quality factors such as impairment of the receiving water or proximity of the discharge to coastal waters.The <a target='_blank' href='https://www.epa.gov/frs' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Facility Registry Service</a> (FRS) provides quality facility data to support EPA's mission of protecting human health and the environment by identifying and geospatially locating facilities, sites, or places subject to environmental regulations of environmental interest. Facility data is improved with geospatial processing of incoming data and data curation tools to provide an integrated, dataset to partners and the public through a variety of methods and products.

Under NPDES, all facilities that discharge pollutants from any point source into waters of the United States are required to obtain a permit. The permit will likely contain limits on what can be discharged, impose monitoring and reporting requirements, and include other provisions to ensure that the discharge does not adversely affect water quality. NPDES NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM (ICIS-NPDES) ground condition Data records contained within are a materialized view based on the EPA geospatial tables which are refreshed based on the record's Last_Reported_Date field. The view is based on a join of the facility site table and the interest table to include the universe of interest types per program system id. Data records that do not contain positional information (latitude and longitude values) are not in this view. Imported data into file geodatabase as new feature classes.
