Steps
Review the API reference at iwaste.epa.gov/developers to confirm current auth requirements for I-WASTE DST's public API
Call GET /api/facilities/export to pull treatment and disposal facility location data for incident planning
Call GET /api/categories and GET /api/parameters to retrieve the waste category groups and default calculation parameters needed to build a waste-estimate request
POST to /api/waste-calc with incident parameters (structure types, affected area, etc.) to generate a debris/waste volume estimate
POST to /api/waste-calc/export to retrieve the calculation results in an exportable format
Known gotchas
I-WASTE DST is built for disaster/incident debris planning (natural disasters, terrorist incidents, animal-health emergencies) — its facility and waste-category data reflect that use case, not routine municipal collection
The tool's UI is a JavaScript single-page app; the documented /api endpoints are the reliable integration surface rather than scraping the web app
Waste-calc estimates depend on accurate structure-types and parameters inputs, so pull the current category/parameter lists dynamically rather than hardcoding them
