Dataset
To provide public access to datasets related to energy, environmental quality, natural resources, environmental regulation, resource management, and environmental infrastructure across Texas
The Energy and Environment Collection is part of the Texas Open Data Portal, a statewide platform that provides access to datasets from Texas state agencies. The category serves as a centralized repository for information related to environmental protection, energy systems, natural resources, environmental compliance, and resource management. State agencies contributing to the portal include organizations such as the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Texas Water Development Board (TWDB), Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD), and other environmental and resource-management agencies.
The collection contains datasets covering environmental compliance, waste management, environmental enforcement, remediation activities, water resource administration, and energy-related operations. Examples of available resources include Notices of Violation (NOV), Notices of Enforcement (NOE), emergency response spill records, administrative enforcement orders, industrial hazardous waste generation records, waste registration and reporting submissions, on-site waste management information, petroleum storage tank delivery certificates, leaking petroleum storage tank sites, remediation program records, Texas water districts, aggregate production operations, compliance and enforcement search portals, and environmental document repositories.
Datasets are collected and maintained by Texas state agencies through environmental monitoring programs, regulatory reporting systems, permitting activities, natural resource inventories, engineering assessments, field surveys, geospatial mapping programs, utility reporting systems, and administrative data collection. Information is standardized and published through the Texas Open Data Portal for public access and analysis. Methodologies vary by dataset and contributing agency.
