Downloads EPA ECHO DMR records of dischargers with NPDES permits

Uses EPA ECHO API to download the Discharge Monitoring Record (DMR) of a single plant, identified with p_id. Please note that the p_id is case sensitive.

echoGetEffluent(p_id, verbose = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

p_id	Character string specify the identifier for the service. Required. Case sensitive.
verbose	Logical, indicating whether to provide processing and retrieval messages. Defaults to FALSE
...	Further arguments passed on as query parameters sent to EPA's ECHO API. For more options see: https://echo.epa.gov/tools/web-services/effluent-charts#!/Effluent_Charts/get_eff_rest_services_get_effluent_chart

Value

Returns a dataframe.
