Alabama consolidates three federal EPA datasets into one statewide environmental profile: 661 Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) facilityies reporting under EPCRA Section 313, 543 community water systems regulated under the Safe Drinking Water Act, and 16 sites on the Superfund National Priorities List.

TRI facilities in AL have cumulatively disclosed 411.7M lbs of toxic chemical releases, while SDWIS records show 485 total violations across the state's regulated water systems — of which 91 systems carry an active health-based violation (MCL exceedance or treatment-technique failure). Activity clusters in counties such as Jefferson, Mobile, Madison, which account for the highest combined facility, water-system, and Superfund presence.

Every figure reflects the public regulatory record as filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and is not weighted for toxicity, geographic footprint, or population exposure. A state can rank high in any individual metric because of industrial history, naturally occurring contaminants in source water, or simply the number of reporting facilities — not because current residents face unsafe conditions.
