This map was developed by SRA International for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) OSWER Center for Program Analysis. Results are based
on site screening criteria adapted from National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) criteria and GIS data provided by Southern Methodist University
(SMU) Geothermal Laboratory, NREL and EPA. This map and its associated data are intended to provide a general understanding of the renewable energy
potential of EPA tracked sites; additional site-specific technical and economic analysis is required to determine the actual energy generation
potential of EPA tracked sites. For further information, please see the accompanying Data Guidelines document at www.epa.gov/renewableenergyland
