This database contains records of the sites being addressed under one of DER's remedial programs - State Superfund, Brownfield Cleanup, Environmental Restoration and Voluntary Cleanup. This database also includes the Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste Disposal Sites and information on Institutional and Engineering Controls in New York State.

- DEC Remediation Site Boundaries - Downloadable GIS Files - the boundaries of sites in DEC's Remedial Programs (State Superfund, Brownfield Cleanup, Environmental Restoration and Voluntary Cleanup Programs) are also available as GIS Files (ESRI ArcGIS Shapefile format).
- NYS En-Zone Boundaries - Downloadable GIS Files - the boundaries of census tracts designated as EnZones are available as GIS Files (ESRI ArcGIS Shapefile format) and "KMZ" (Google Earth) file format.
