This summer, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will update EJScreen, the Agency's publicly available environmental justice (EJ) screening and mapping tool. The updated version, EJScreen 2.3, makes important improvements to better meet the needs of users, including new environmental indicators and map layers, interface improvements, and updated demographic and environmental data. This new version of EJScreen will make interface changes aimed at helping users better understand the data and modernizing aspects of the tool. The main purpose of these annual EJScreen updates is to incorporate the newest available demographic and environmental datasets.

 

Once released, the EPA’s Office of Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights will hold multiple trainings and office hours to help users with the update. Trainings are structured webinars on EJScreen 2.3. Office hours are a chance for the public to talk with EPA EJScreen experts about many topics including how to use and apply the tool, technical issues, and any other questions. Registration is not required for trainings or office hours. More information can be found at: https://www.epa.gov/ejscreen/ejscreen-office-hours-training.
