This Halloween season, we're remembering our Dearly Departed Datasets — the federal datasets that have met an untimely end. Help us memorialize what was lost and why they matter.

Memorialize them here by 10/29: forms.gle/nGFj5Teqg6d7...

Results will be shared on Halloween!

EPA’s environment justice grants under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) were developed according to high standards and in strict adherence with federal laws, policies, and regulations. The programs were designed to be transparent, accountable, and impactful. They're being targeted by EPA and DOGE.
This map displays environmental justice (EJ) grants the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has made through the Inflation Reduction Act since 2024. The EPA Administrator previously announced his intention to cancel many of the agency's grants and contracts and their status is quickly changing: some recipients have lost access to funds, received notices of termination, or find themselves uncertain of their status. This map is not comprehensive and will be updated periodically as additional information becomes available, but what is displayed here is a large number of the potentially affected grants.
