EPA Mapping Tools for Storytelling

Oct 3, 2025 | Home

Storytelling is an essential part of successful grant writing, and having strong data to support your community’s story will give you a significant boost in the competition. EPA recommends a number of mapping and analysis tools that can help you showcase local challenges, highlight community needs, and illustrate the impact of your project. Some of these tools include:

  • UST Finder – An interactive map to help you identify and locate underground storage tanks and releases across the U.S. 
  • Cleanups in My Community – Lets you see and share where cleanup and redevelopment projects are happening nationwide. 
  • RE-Powering Mapper – Identifies renewable energy opportunities on contaminated lands, landfills, and mine sites. 
  • EnviroAtlas – Gives access to a wide range of EPA environmental data for your community.
