Virginia Department of Environmental Quality Geospatial Data and Tools Terms of Use

Data Accuracy Statement:

DEQ is charged with the development and maintenance of the VA EJScreen+ utility and, in cooperation with other agencies and organizations, is committed to offering its users accurate, useful and current information. Although every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of information, errors and conditions originating from physical sources used to develop the resources may be reflected in the information supplied. The user must be aware of possible conditions and bear responsibility for the appropriate use of the information with respect to possible errors, original map scale, collection methodology, currency and other conditions specific to certain data, web services or applications. While every effort has been made by data providers to ensure this information is accurate and reliable, there is no assumption of liability for any damages caused by inaccuracies in the data, web services or applications. There is no warranty, express or implied, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty.

This utility (VA EJScreen+) and data contained within are to be used for reference purposes only and the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality is not responsible for any inaccuracies herein contained. No responsibility is assumed for damages or other liabilities due to the accuracy, availability, use or misuse of the information herein provided. GIS information is in the public domain and may be copied without permission; citation of the source is suggested.

The information made available through this tool is for reference purposes only and is not to be construed or used as a "legal description” or for legal purposes. All data is provided by DEQ "as is." This information is believed to be accurate, but accuracy is not guaranteed. Information drawn from this application must be used in consultation with appropriate federal, state or local resource management officials. Any errors or omissions should be reported to DEQ via email or phone. By using these applications/data made available by DEQ, you are agreeing to the terms and conditions listed above.

1/30/2024 Update: DEQ has identified an Esri defect in the Attribute Table Widget which results in a download record cap of 2000 records when downloading to CSV. Until this issue has been resolved by the vendor, this functionality has been disabled to prevent application users from downloading partial datasets unknowingly. In the meantime, DEQ suggests users use our Open Data Portal to download Environmental Justice dataset layers

Dataset Availability:

You acknowledge that DEQ may add and remove datasets from the VA EJScreen+ tool from time to time and without notice to you. When DEQ removes a dataset from the VA EJScreen+ tool, no further licenses will be granted for it pursuant to these Terms of Use, but any licenses that already exist will still exist.

Indemnity:

You agree to indemnify DEQ and hold DEQ harmless from any and all claims and expenses, including legal fees, arising from or relating to your use or misuse of any Data or from any breach by you of these Terms of Use.
