"Congratulations !! Extremely valuable and informative site."

"I have had the opportunity to use the ECHO site several times and have found it to be very useful. It has provided information in a single location that would have taken a much longer period to find, if it was even possible to find. I strongly support keeping this site operational."

"[xxx] is a global leader in providing investors with information on corporate environmental and social performance. We've used EPA databases extensively in the past. Our largest problem has been rolling facility data up the the corporate level. Many of your users need corporate level data, I suspect. The ECHO system is a large step forward in terms of combining different data sources. We thank you for providing it. However, the most beneficial change you could make to the system would be to provide corporate level data. Thank you for making this change."

"Good idea, good site! Knowing that a place of business has had 2 violations under RCRA and the fine that was charged is great but I'd like to see bit more info than that. Specifically, it would be very helpful if I could learn what a specific violation was for."

"ECHO is a very good idea. Give an award to the person/group that suggested it be done ON-LINE. This is something I can use to follow up on various legal notices in our local newspaper. THANKS!!"
