The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is awarding $315 million to brownfields communities across the country to revitalize dangerous and polluted sites into more sustainable and environmentally-just places.
$215 million of that is being awarded to 262 communities across the country in competitive EPA brownfields funding — the largest ever awarded in the history of the EPA’s Brownfields MARC Grant programs!
This investment will also fund Technical Assistance Providers to lead trainings in assessment, clean-up, and revitalization to brownfields communities in all 10 EPA regions.
Funding is made possible by the historic boost from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law as part of the Investing in America plan and will expedite the assessment and cleanup of brownfields sites across the country while advancing Environmental Justice.
