The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering Brownfields Cleanup Grants to fund remediation activities at specific brownfield sites. This grant is for states, communities, tribes, and nonprofits who own a brownfield site and seek financial assistance for direct cleanup. Mandated by the Brownfields Law, EPA’s broader Brownfields Program empowers these entities to prevent, assess, clean up, and reuse contaminated properties. This particular opportunity focuses exclusively on Cleanup Grants. These grants provide vital resources for site-specific cleanup, significantly contributing to environmental restoration and the safe redevelopment of brownfield lands.
