Website Known Issues

This page describes known issues related to the ECHO website itself. For data quality problems, please see the Known Data Problems page.

Overall

  • Some formatting problems remain in Internet Explorer 8 (IE8). IE8 issues will not be addressed. Later versions of Internet Explorer will continue to be supported.
  • Facility search performance optimization is ongoing. If experiencing problems with slow facility searching or searches that won't load, please send information about the search ran, Internet browser, date, and time of day to ECHO Support
  • The ECHO Interactive Map results view may display clusters from adjacent states due to imprecise geographic data. Geographic coordinates are approximated in ECHO if facilities do not have location information. These facilities are indicated by the Facilities with estimated latitude/longitude marker icon.
  • Improvements to sitewide formatting consistency are underway.

Report Environmental Violations

  • Users may experience difficulty submitting violation reports with photo/video attachments in certain browsers. Reports can still be submitted without attachments.
