This grant is for eligible entities seeking EPA funds and direct assistance to support area-wide planning for brownfields assessment, cleanup, and subsequent reuse. The program aims to facilitate robust community involvement in redeveloping brownfields-impacted areas, such as specific neighborhoods or city blocks. Funding and technical assistance will enable the creation of comprehensive area-wide plans that guide the assessment, remediation, and productive reuse of contaminated properties. Ultimately, this initiative seeks to promote significant area-wide revitalization.
