The past year has been a time of change for our agency, but as always, we remain dedicated to protecting public health and the environment for you.
The first change you may notice is the appearance of a new face on this page. After more than ten years as executive director and nearly 40 years in public service, Scott Thompson has retired. I am honored to have been chosen as DEQ’s next executive director, and I intend to use this transition as an opportunity for growth and improvement for the agency. DEQ has an excellent foundation, and it is my goal to build on what we have already accomplished.
DEQ’s geographic information system (GIS) is used to manage visual representation of data in maps. DEQ uses GIS to make maps that communicate, perform analysis, share information, and solve complex problems helping to make Oklahoma an even better place to live. Visit the DEQ GIS Maps & Data website to explore maps and download data. Data layers on our DEQ Data Viewer include air monitoring sites, Superfund sites, storm water sensitive areas, accredited laboratories and much more.
