The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering Brownfields Cleanup Grants to states, communities, tribes, and nonprofits. This grant program, established under the Brownfields Law, aims to empower eligible entities to carry out cleanup activities at specific brownfield sites they own. Funds are provided to address contamination, facilitating the reuse and revitalization of these properties. While EPA’s broader Brownfields Program supports assessment and revolving loan fund activities, this specific call focuses solely on proposals for direct cleanup grants. The objective is to aid in the remediation of hazardous substances and pollutants, transforming dormant or underutilized sites. Proposals for this opportunity were due by November 28, 2011.
