Greenville, PA
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.
Assessment Grants
$200,000for hazardous substances
$100,000for petroleum
EPA has selected the Borough of Greenville for two brownfields
assessment grants. Community-wide hazardous substances and
petroleum grant funds will be used to conduct eight Phase I
environmental site assessments. Community-wide hazardous substances
grant funds will be used to conduct four Phase II environmental site
assessments. Community-wide petroleum grant funds will be used to
conduct two Phase II environmental site assessments. Grant funds of
both types also will be used to update the borough's brownfield site
inventory and support community involvement activities.
