Search EPA-regulated facilities by company name and/or state with normalized compliance flags API

Searches the U.S. EPA ECHO database for regulated facilities by company name and/or state, normalizing the cryptic ECHO column names into tidy records with per-program (air/water/waste/drinking-water) compliance status and a significant-violator flag. Answers 'Does this company operate EPA-regulated sites here?', 'Which of its facilities are flagged as significant violators?'.
