EPA recently issued an RFP for grant funding and direct assistance to create area-wide plans for brownfield-impacted areas. The funding aims to develop planning efforts that will create a coordinated approach to the assessment, cleanup and redevelopment of brownfield properties and promote area-wide revitalization efforts.
The program is designed to provide support for the following activities:
- fine-tuning an ongoing planning process for brownfield properties;
- developing area-wide plans for brownfield-related projects; and
- helping determine next steps and resource identification for plan implementation.
EPA expects to select 20 pilot projects, each with a total maximum amount of assistance of $175,000 (combined grants and technical assistance).
The deadline for proposals is June 1, 2010. For more information see the full text of the RFP announcement.
