Innovative Redevelopment at Superfund Sites
Supporting Healthy, Sustainable and Equitable Communities
Communities nationwide are looking for new opportunities to sustain jobs and economic development, protect their
natural resources and public health, and strengthen quality of life for all citizens. EPA's mission is to protect the health
of all communities and advance environmental protection. Through partnerships, programs and initiatives, the Agency
is working to help communities around the country develop in environmentally and economically sustainable ways.
Restoring, revitalizing and bringing economically productive new uses to contaminated lands such as Superfund sites
is a vital part of this work. Superfund communities are developing innovative ways to address social, economic and
environmental priorities, pursuing opportunities that benefit people, the environment and the bottom line. These fact
sheets take a closer look at these approaches, helping communities interested in Superfund Redevelopment save time
and money as they plan for the future.
Topics covered include:
1)	Renewable Energy
2)	Ecological Revitalization
3)	Mixed-Use Redevelopment
4)	Recreation
5)	Green Infrastructure
6)	Green Buildings and Landscapes
7)	Environmental Education
Each page illustrates how communities are using creative
strategies to manage their growth in ways that preserve
natural lands and critical environmental areas, protect water
and air quality, and bring economically productive new uses
to previously developed land. Today, hundreds of cleaned-
up Superfund sites have been returned to productive use,
supporting thousands of jobs with a multi-billion dollar
payroll. Innovation can also begin during cleanups. Green
remediation strategies can accelerate cleanups, reduce the
cost and carbon footprint of cleanup activities, and support
local jobs. For more information, visit http://clu-in.org/

Innovative Redevelopment at Superfund Sites
Topic #1: Renewable Energy
Renewable Energy: At a Glance
Wind: American wind farms generated 48,611
megawatts of energy as of March 2012 - three
percent of the U.S. electricity supply, powering
the equivalent of nearly 10 million homes.
Solar: Reports estimate solar energy could
meet 10 percent of the nation's power needs
by 2025; it currently provides less than one
percent of the U.S. electricity supply.
Biomass: Organic material from plants
and animals produces biofuels such as
ethanol, byproducts - chemicals for making
plastics and other products typically made
from petroleum - and bioenergy. Biomass
seasonally provides about 1.4 percent of the
U.S. electricity supply.
Geothermal: The United States is the global
leader in using the Earth's heat as an energy
source. Geothermal energy currently generates
15 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually,
approximately 0.3 percent of the country's
electricity supply.
Renewable energy resources such as wind, solar, biomass
and geothermal energy are non-polluting, inexhaustible
and increasingly cost-competitive. Renewable energy
alternatives can help communities createjobs and diversify
their economies. They are an important part of .America's
energy security and environmental sustainability.
Superfund sites can be well suited for renewable energy
production. Sites in urban and rural areas near utilities and
transportation networks help keep development costs low.
Many sites are located in places with strong wind, solar,
biomass and geothermal resources. Nationwide, there are
at least 45 Superfund sites in planned or actual renewable
energy reuse.
Key Considerations
Renewable energy projects begin with detailed assessments
of the energy resource and related factors, including site
characteristics, available infrastructure and surrounding
land uses.
Renewable energy technologies can be scaled to different
needs. They can range from small-scale solar or wind
systems for use by homeowners, small businesses, ranchers,
farmers and other individual users to large, commercial-
scale power generating facilities.
Renewable Energy Projects in Action
Gases from buried wastes at the 508-acre Lowry Landfill outside Denver, Colorado,
are now productively reused at a gas-to-energy plant. The facili ty uses four combustion
engines to convert 630 million cubic feet of methane gas annually into 3.2 megawatts
of electrical power, reducing greenhouse gases and providing electricity for about
3,000 households, (top image)
A 40-acre solar farm on the Aerojet General Corporation site near Sacramento,
California, generates six megawatts of power; it is one of the largest industrial
installations in the United States. The solar panels are currently providing energy
for the site's ground water cleanup. Longer-term plans include providing power for
development projects and the region's energy grid, (middle image)
The Fernald Environmental Management Project Superfund site, a former uranium
processing facility, is now the location of the innovative multi-use Fernald Preserve
Visitor Center. Recipient of the first Platinum LEED certification for sustainability
in Ohio, the center features a geothermal heating and cooling system that has cut
its energy consumption in half. The facility is an adaptively reused steel warehouse
built as part of the site's cleanup. Site reuses also include trails and wildlife habitat.

Topic #2: Ecological Revitalization
Superfund cleanups protect and restore the environment and protect
public health. Before natural systems at Superfund sites can support
parks, wildlife habitat, farmland and forests, they often need to be
restored to functioning and sustainable use. This process - increasing
or improving habitat for plants and animals - is called ecological
revitalization.
Restored ecosystems help people live healthier and more enjoyable
lives. Ecological revitalization improves soil health and supports
diverse vegetation, sequesters carbon, protects air and water quality,
and sets the stage for wildlife habitat and recreation opportunities,
including hunting, hiking, biking, horseback riding and bird watching,
as well as environmental education. Through 2012, more than 100
Superfund sites nationwide are in planned or actual ecological reuse.
Key Considerations
Ecological revitalization helps restore natural ecosystems and serves as an important part of site cleanup. For
example, soil amendments can be used to bind contaminants, build soil and establish plant growth.
•	Soil amendments include municipal biosolids, manures, sugar beet lime, wood ash, log yard waste and composted
agricultural byproducts. They can reduce toxicity and restore soil, providing environmental and economic benefits;
materials destined for disposal may be recycled to build soil while reclaiming unusable or devalued land.
•	Revegetation is often one of the final actions taken at a site. When possible, plant species native to the area
should be selected for planting. Native plants often cost less, require less care, provide shelter and food for
wildlife, reduce air pollution, and provide greater biodiversity.
Ecological Revitalization in Action
At the Atlas Tack Superfund site in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, EPA and its partners
preserved and created fresh and saltwater wetlands as part of the cleanup. Today,
the site sustains 14,000 native plant species and provides a thriving estuarine
habitat for local wildlife and migrating birds, (top image)
The Milltown Reservoir Sediments site in western Montana is the location of
one of the nation's largest river cleanup and ecological revitalization efforts. The
project's restoration plan relies on diverse native plant communities, side channels
and wetlands that mimic natural river systems. Four hundred acres at the site were
transferred to the State of Montana for a new state park, (middle images)
Ecological revitalization at the Joint Expeditionary Base (JEB) Little Creek-Fort
Story site in Virginia Beach, Virginia, created tidal wetland habitat with riparian
forest and tidal channels. A walking trail passes the wetlands and handicap-
accessible platforms with picnic tables and spotting scopes, (bottom image)

Benefits and the Bottom Line
Ecological revitalization translates
into dollars and cents for
communities. Once restored,
natural areas can have a positive
effect on nearby property values,
tax revenues and tourism,
facilitate healthy lifestyles, reduce
flood control and stormwater
management costs, and improve
local air and water quality.

Innovative Redevelopment at Superfund Sites
Topic #3: Mixed-Use Redevelopment
Many Superfund sites are large enough to support several land uses, enabling communities to address multiple
priorities. Smart growth and sustainable development approaches, including mixed-use projects, provide benefits that
extend beyond jobs, services and amenities. Mixed-use redevelopment efforts can create walkable neighborhoods,
convert renewable energy into power, provide access to public
transportation, and strengthen quality of life for everyone.
Superfund sites are often strong candidates for innovative mixed-use
projects. They are "well wired," located near utilities and roads due
to prior land uses. Recycling these lands helps retain development
in existing communities, revitalizing downtowns and preserving
open space, farmland, natural beauty and critical environmental
areas. Through 2012, 75 Superfund sites nationwide are in planned
or actual mixed reuse.
Key Considerations
Mixed-use redevelopment works best with the involvement of
diverse organizations and public and private sector partners, and
when local governments play a leading role.
Redevelopment planning and implementation works well during cleanups - integrating remedy and reuse can
save time and money. For example, installation of utility corridors and building footers can be coordinated with
cleanup activities. Site grading and soil compaction during cleanups can reduce the need for additional site
preparation. Communities and developers may fund these activities using a variety of resources and incentives.
Mixed-Use Redevelopment in Action
On the Midvale Slag Superfund site in northern Utah, families moved into
affordable housing, shopping areas are thriving and companies conduct
business in LEED-certified developments that minimize impervious
surfaces and recycle rainwater. Riverwalk Park provides access to the
Jordan River and a Utah Transit Authority rail station recently opened on
site. The development supports about 600 jobs, generates $1.5 million in
annual property taxes and has led to a $131 million increase in the value of
the site property, (top and middle images)
Cleanup of vacant lots at the Jacobsville Neighborhood Soil Contamination
site in Evansville, Indiana, led to residential reuse, education opportunities
and urban gardening. A local nonprofit built a 26-unit residence for
homeless and disabled veterans on site. It includes space for meetings and
classes, with wireless access provided so residents can pursue employment
and training opportunities. At the raised beds of a nearby community
garden, children learn about nutrition and the importance of a clean,
healthy environment, (bottom images)

Topic #4: Recreation
Recreation opportunities located on Superfund sites include parks, playgrounds, trails, picnic areas, bird
watching, sports fields, fishing ponds, model airplane flying fields, snow tubing, ice rinks and golf courses.
Through 2012, more than 200 Superfund sites are in planned or actual recreational reuse.
Key Considerations
Many Superfund sites are located in communities that lack recreation
facilities and have limited land to develop such spaces. Recreational
reuse of sites can provide pocket parks, playgrounds, open space and
other facilities in these high-need areas.
EPA collaborates with several organizations - the Academy of
Model Aeronautics, the U.S. Soccer Foundation, the Rails-to-Trails
Conservancy and The Trust for Public Land - to support recreational
reuse opportunities. To learn more, visit: http://www.epa.gov/
superfund/programs/recvcle/activities/organizations.html.
Recreational Innovation in Action
At the Lexington County Landfill Area Superfund site near Columbia,
South Carolina, the local government led an innovative cleanup and
returned the site to recreational reuse. Lexington County collaborated
with the University of South Carolina to redevelop the northern part of
the site into "the Coop," a 9-acre practice facility for the university's
golf teams, (top images)
The H.O.D. Landfill Superfund site in Antioch, Illinois, is a major
recreation destination. Two multi-million-dollar facilities, McMillen
Field and the Tim Osmond Sports Complex, provide sports fields and
other community amenities, (middle images)
At the Dupage County Landfill Superfund site in Warrenville, Illinois,
a 150-foot hill known as Mt. Hoy is the centerpiece of a multi-use
recreational area. Local residents now hike the former landfill to bird
watch and sled during the winter The area also provides picnic and
camping areas, hiking and cross-country skiing trails, and fishing and
boating areas, (bottom image)

Innovative "green" designs distinguish some of these reuses. Some designs bring reuse and remedy together
during the planning stages, such as recreational trails located on top of wastes that cap materials in place at
sites. Other site designs incorporate remedies that are already in place, providing opportunities to enhance
protectiveness and harness new sources of energy. In all cases, these approaches seek to maximize public
health and environmental benefits for communities.

Innovative Redevelopment at Superfund Sites
Topic #5: Green Infrastructure
Communities nationwide work together to manage their "grey" infrastructure assets - highways, utilities, public
transit systems and airports. A region's natural resources - part of its green infrastructure - are no different.
Forests, waterways and wildlife habitat all cross jurisdictional
boundaries, naturally managing stormwater, reducing flooding
risk, improving air and water quality, and sequestering carbon,
helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Green infrastructure thus performs many of the same functions
as traditionally built grey infrastructure, often at a fraction of the
cost. Additionally, these resources enhance community quality
of life, providing clean water, agricultural soils and public
parks and trails. Successful projects have demonstrated that an
interconnected landscape system also provides a unique sense
of place that attracts people, jobs and investment. As Superfund
communities plan for future growth, some are undertaking
innovative green infrastructure projects that use sites to help link
regional natural resources together.
Key Considerations
Green infrastructure planning begins with a detailed assessment of natural resources in the area, including
waterways, forests, agricultural areas and wildlife habitat, and the services they provide.
Consideration of community priorities and existing plans is an important part of green infrastructure planning.
This requires working with diverse stakeholders locally and regionally to make sure projects identify all linkage
opportunities and any potential issues.
Green Infrastructure in Action
Communities in Leon Valley, Texas, are implementing a revitalization
plan that includes the Bandera Road Ground Water Plume Superfund
site. The plan integrates regional sustainability, transportation,
stormwater management and economic development. Localities are
actively working on protecting natural corridors, planting trees, and
developing green streets and regional trail connections, (top image)
The Rhode Island towns of Cumberland and Lincoln are working together
on a regional green infrastructure project. The towns collaborated with
federal, state, local and private organizations to create a greenway
with ecological preserves and wetlands that will include the Peterson/
Puritan Superfund site and become part of a 17-mile-long riverside
park, (bottom image)
To learn more, visit http://www.epa.gov/superfund/programs/recvcle.
Planning for the Future
Atthe regional level, green infrastructure
is "a strategically planned and managed
network of wilderness, parks, greenways,
conservation easements, and working
lands with conservation value that
supports native species, maintains
natural ecological processes, sustains
air and water resources, and contributes
to the health and quality of life for
America's communities and people."

Topic #6: Green Buildings and Landscapes
Collaboration between EPA and communities has led to innovative green building projects and sustainable
landscapes on Superfund sites nationwide. Green buildings showcase design and construction practices that
minimize energy and water use and use environmentally friendly materials. Sustainable landscapes restore
and recreate natural processes, enabling water conservation, water filtration and irrigation.
Green buildings and landscapes promote healthier living by increasing access to healthy food and safe
walking and biking routes; enhancing recreational access and facilities; and engaging communities through
education and activities such as gardening. Model projects show how to improve air, soil and water quality.
By providing new habitats and reducing use of materials that impact the environment, green buildings and
landscapes support biological diversity and site stewardship. Greening formerly contaminated sites also can
support economic revitalization and therefore result in new jobs, services, recreational assets and housing.
Key Considerations
Superfund redevelopment projects can incorporate green building and sustainable landscape best practices
at different scales. While some features require skilled labor and significant investment, others, such as
putting in rain gardens, natural lighting and energy-efficient appliances, are simple to implement and offer
significant returns. Reducing impervious areas - conventional pavement and roofs - is a key element of
innovative projects. Reducing such surfaces allows rain to soak into the soil, preventing sewer overflows,
flooding and stream erosion. The illustration on the next page shows how green building and sustainable
landscape features can come together as part of construction and restoration activities.
Green Buildings and Landscapes in Action
A vibrant waterfront community is under construction at the Li Tungsten
Superfund site in Glen Cove, New York. Following a $120 million cleanup
and infrastructure improvement effort, a public-private partnership is
developing a project focused on green buildings and landscape design. The
walkable community will include homes, businesses, civic land uses and a
ferry port to Manhattan. LEED-certified buildings will be surrounded by
restored wetlands and open space, (top image)
A public-private partnership and incentives enabled the cleanup and
development of a 1.3-million-square-foot open-air shopping center at the
Indian Bend Wash Superfund site in Scottsdale, Arizona. Water features,
plantings and shade structures provide cooling effects in the warm summer
climate. The project brought 4,500 new jobs to the area and generates an
estimated $300 million in annual sales, (middle image)
Projects at the Commencement Bay site in Tacoma, Washington, are bringing
together green buildings and landscapes. Point Ruston, a 97-acre Built Greenฎ
development, includes homes, hotels and stores, 50 acres of open space, and
shoreline trails. Nearby on the site, the LEED Platinum-certified headquarters
for the Center for Urban Waters reuses rainwater, reducing water use by 46
percent. Other facility features include a green roof, pervious pavement
parking, native plantings and use of recycled materials, (bottom image)

Topic #7: Environmental Education
What Is Environmental Education?
Environmental education teaches children and
adults how to learn about and investigate their
environment, and to make intelligent, informed
decisions about how they can take care of it.
Environmental education istaught in traditional
classrooms, in communities, and in settings
like nature centers, museums, parks and zoos.
Learning about the environment involves many
subjects - earth science, biology, chemistry,
social studies, even math and language arts -
because understanding how the environment
works, and keeping it healthy, involves
knowledge and skills from many disciplines.
Superfund sites have remarkable stories. Their cleanup and
restoration provides a window into environmental science,
ecology and how natural systems work. Their history -
facilities that were part of day-to-day life, often for decades
-	is an important part of communities' heritage.
Many innovative Superfund reuses recognize and incorporate
these stories as educational opportunities. Education areas,
signage, boardwalks and trails, and interactive teaching
materials turn sites into classrooms for local children and
other community members. Renovating old buildings and
preserving reminders of the past - equipment, tools, material s
-	brings the history of sites alive. Planting gardens provides
education opportunities and increases community access to
healthy, nutritious food.
Superfund sites also can attract broader regional and national interest, supporting tourism and economic
development, and linking surrounding recreation areas and neighborhoods. Through 2012, environmental
education areas are located at more than 30 Superfund sites nationwide.
Environmental Education in Action
In Jacksonville, Arkansas, collaboration among EPA, the state and the
City of Jacksonville transformed the Vertac, Inc. site, a former chemical
manufacturing facility, into a valuable educational resource for the
community. Next to the city's new recycling facilities, a Recycling
Education Park provides opportunities to learn about composting,
recycling and environmental stewardship. School field trips and local
residents visit the park, nearby green space and picnic areas where they
can view donated artwork made of recycled materials, (top images)
In Olathe, Kansas, the community is working with several partners
to establish walk-through educational habitat at the Chemical
Commodities, Inc. Superfund site. The site will provide habitat for local
wildlife while helping the community learn about the importance of
pollination. Current plans include pollinator gardens for bees, butterflies
and birds, native plants and trees, walking trails and education areas. In
September 2012, more than 110 community volunteers helped establi sh
the gardens, planting more than 1,600 native plants, (middle image)
, Greensgrow Farm is one of the leading urban agriculture projects in
the United States. Located on a 1-acre plot in Philadelphia's low-
income Kensington neighborhood, raised beds and greenhouses have taken the place of the Boyle Galvanizing
site, a former steel galvanizing factory. The farm provides produce to area restaurants and residents and includes
a plant nursery, farm stand and community-supported agriculture program, (bottom images)
