title: Risk Management Plan (RMP) Estimated Climate Risks

description: &lt;p&gt;This dataset contains a list of 3,856 Risk Management Plan facilities that are located in areas of the US thought to be at risk of climate-related natural disasters -- that is, inland flooding, coastal flooding, wildfires, and storm surge due to hurricanes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;What is the Risk Management Plan?&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Risk Management Plan (RMP) -- also known as the Chemical Disaster Rule -- was created as part of Section 112(r) of the 1990 Clean Air Act. The Rule requires certain chemical, manufacturing and industrial facilities to create and submit a plan to the US Environmental Protection Agency for how they plan to prevent chemical and industrial disasters including those caused by natural disasters. For more information see: &lt;a&gt;https://www.epa.gov/rmp/risk-management-plan-rmp-rule-overview &lt;/a&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;
