The EXCHANGE
NETWORK (EN)

The Environmental Information Exchange Network (EN) is a partner-inspired, developed, implemented, and governed information network. It facilitates environmental data sharing among EPA, states, Tribes, and territories. ​

Launched in 2002 to foster better environmental management and decision-making through increased access to timely, high quality environmental information, the EN first focused on transforming the regulatory reporting process of eight national data flows by standardizing electronic reporting. ​
