EPA Brownfields Program

EPA's Brownfields Program empowers states.
communities, and other stakeholders to work together to
prevent, assess, safely clean up, and sustainably reuse
brownfields. A brownfield site is real property, the
expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be
complicated by the presence or potential presence of a
hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. In 2002,
the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields
Revitalization Act was passed to help states and
communities around the country cleanup and revitalize
brownfields sites. Under this law, EPA  provides financial
assistance to eligible applicants through four competitive
grant programs: assessment grants, revolving loan fund
grants, cleanup grants, and job training  grants.
Additionally, funding support is provided to state and
tribal response programs through a separate mechanism.
                    Cleanup Grant

                    $115,317 for hazardous substances

                    EPA has selected the Moscow Urban Renewal
                    Agency for a brownfields cleanup grant.
                    Hazardous substances grant funds will be used to
                    clean up the Sixth and Jackson property at 217
                    and 317 West Sixth Street in the City of Moscow.
                    The site's past use as a bulk storage facility for
                    agricultural chemicals has resulted in
                    contamination from metals, pentachlorophenol,
                    and pesticides. Grant funds also will be used to
                    conduct community involvement activities.
