These grants aim to support states, communities, tribes, and nonprofits in preventing, assessing, and reusing brownfield sites. The current guidelines specifically focus on Assessment Grants, with Cleanup Grant applications directed to a separate announcement. Please note that new Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) Grants will not be issued this fiscal year, but existing RLF grantees may request supplemental funding through a Federal Register notice in early 2017. Deadline for Assessment Grant proposals is December 22, 2016.
