Introduction

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Brownfields Program is designed to empower states,
communities, and other stakeholders to work together in a timely manner to prevent, assess, safely
clean up, and sustainably reuse contaminated or formerly contaminated land. Brownfields grants serve
as the foundation of the Brownfields Program and support land revitalization efforts by funding
environmental site assessment, cleanup, and job training activities. Since passage of the Small Business
Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act of 2002 (the "Brownfields Law"), EPA has competitively
awarded 1,454 assessment grants totaling $324.6 million, 133 grants to capitalize revolving loan funds
totaling $158.5 million, and 751 cleanup grants totaling $140.8 million.

The Evaluation of2003-2008 Brownfields Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup Grants is the
first national program evaluation of the outcomes, efficiencies, and economic benefits produced by
Brownfields grants. The main purposes of the evaluation are as follows:

1.	Analyze property milestones toward land revitalization achieved by 2003-2008 Brownfields
assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.

2.	Identify opportunities for improving the management and efficiencies of Brownfields
assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.

3.	Estimate the economic benefits caused by Brownfields cleanup grants through use of rigorous,
quasi-experimental designs.

The report is divided into three parts according to the main purposes of the evaluation. Each part
summarizes the data sources, methods, and main results. The results of individual analyses are
presented in more detailed tables and figures at the end of each section of results.

Part I analyzes property milestones toward land revitalization achieved by 2003-2008 Brownfields
assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants. The main analyses follow 8,294 properties across
the major stages of land revitalization, stratifying results based on each type of Brownfields grant and on
whether cleanup was required at the property. Additional analyses examine progress toward land
revitalization following different levels of environmental assessment completed, baseline property
demographics leading to cleanup and redevelopment, and variation in property outcomes across EPA
Regions.

Part II examines the management, outputs, and efficiencies of 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment,
revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants. The main analyses combine results from Part I with data on
financial obligations and draw downs to calculate the efficiency with which assessment grants produce
environmental assessments and revolving loan funds and cleanup grants produce cleanups. Additional
analyses examine individual grant outputs, such as the number of property milestones and Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA) accomplishments achieved per grant, by type of grant, EPA Region,
and award year.

Part III estimates the casual effects of 2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup grants on local property values.
The analyses involve two quasi-experiments: a difference-in-differences design that compares changes
in housing values before and after cleanup among homes near a Brownfield vs. homes farther away
from a Brownfield; and a regression discontinuity design based on the 2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup
grant competition that compares changes in housing values near Brownfields that received cleanup
grant funding vs. changes in housing values near Brownfields that did not receive cleanup grant funding.

Data and Methods

The following section describes the data sources, data collection, and additional steps taken prior to
analysis to improve information quality. The section concludes with a discussion of methods and
assumptions.

EPA chose to restrict the evaluation to properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment,
revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants. Although EPA awarded pilot assessment and revolving loan
fund grants prior to passage of the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act of
2002, comprehensive information about properties was not available until the post-law period. In
addition, at the time of data collection, Brownfields grants awarded after 2008 were still within their
three-year performance period and therefore had incomplete information reported. Given these data
limitations, EPA determined that properties funded by Brownfields grants awarded solely outside the
2003-2008 period were not suitable for analysis.

Data Sources

Data sources for analysis included EPA's Assessment, Cleanup, and Redevelopment Exchange System
(ACRES), an online database for Brownfields grant recipients to electronically submit property
information to EPA; supplemental information on property activities from EPA Regional Offices; and
demographic variables summarized at the block group level from the 2000 Census of Population and
Housing. Data management was performed using SAS ® 9.2 software (SAS Institute Inc., 2008).

Data Collection and Quality Improvements

As part of the evaluation, EPA conducted a large-scale data collection to improve the property
information contained in the ACRES database. EPA sent letters to all 2003-2008 Brownfields grant
recipients and provided them with a summary of the most current information EPA had concerning
assessment, cleanup, and redevelopment at the properties associated with their grants. The letters
requested that Brownfields grant recipients submit updated information about these properties, if
necessary, and provided them with instructions for entering this information in the ACRES database.

In addition to collecting updated property information from grant recipients, EPA implemented a
process to improve the geographic information about properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields
assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants. Although Brownfields grant recipients enter
geographic information about properties in the ACRES database, EPA sought to improve the accuracy of
this information prior to conducting demographic and property value analyses. EPA began the process
by geocoding property addresses using the U.S. Streets Geocoding Service in ArcGIS Desktop ® 10.0
software (ESRI Inc., 2010). The automated geocoding service indicated whether or not the property
address could be matched and then assigned a score based on the strength of the match. EPA
determined the latitude and longitude of property addresses based on the following criteria:

9


-------
•	For property addresses that matched with a perfect score, EPA recorded the latitude and
longitude without making further changes. This step was completed for all properties funded by
2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.

•	For property addresses that matched without a perfect score, EPA individually verified the
correct property address, latitude, and longitude through correspondence with EPA Regional
Offices and grant recipients before recording this information. This step was completed for all
properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants. Properties
funded solely by 2003-2008 assessment grants were excluded due to resource constraints and
because geographic analysis was not planned for these properties.

•	For property addresses that could not be matched or that could not be individually verified, EPA
used the latitude and longitude entered in the ACRES database by grant recipients after
performing several quality checks. Properties with missing geocoordinates or with
geocoordinates that lacked sufficient precision to identify the property within 10 meters (i.e.,
latitude or longitude reported with fewer than four decimal places) were flagged for follow-up
with EPA Regional Offices and grant recipients. This step was completed for all properties
funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.

Methods

EPA queried the ACRES database (data accessed July 11, 2011) to identify the properties funded by
2003-2008 assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants, as well as the activities reported on
these properties. Using the start and completion dates of reported property activities, EPA established a
chronology for each property that spanned the major stages of land revitalization:

1.

No Assessment Started

2.

Assessment Started

3.

Assessment Complete

4.

Cleanup Required but Not Started

5.

Cleanup Started

6.

Cleanup Complete

7.

Ready for Reuse

8.

Redevelopment Started

9.

Redevelopment Complete

Properties progress through the above milestones in sequence. For example, properties that have not
completed assessment or that required cleanup but have not completed cleanup could not be classified
as ready for reuse. On the other hand, properties that completed assessment and did not require
cleanup could be classified as ready for reuse without undergoing cleanup activity. The only exception to
the above sequence concerns situations in which different portions of a property were simultaneously
undergoing different types of activities (e.g., cleanup was started on one portion of the property while
redevelopment was started on another portion). For the purposes of this evaluation, EPA classified the
property based on the furthest milestone toward land revitalization achieved.

10


-------
EPA also determined the highest level of assessment completed at properties funded by 2003-2008
Brownfields assessment grants. The ACRES database contains start and completion dates for three types
of assessments. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment involves visual inspection of the property and
a historical review of records to identify whether potential environmental contamination exists. If a
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment identifies potential environmental contamination, then a Phase II
Environmental Site Assessment may be performed. A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment involves
actual sampling of the site to confirm or deny the presence of contamination. Finally, a Supplemental
Environmental Site Assessment may be performed if further sampling and characterization of
contamination is required prior to starting cleanup.

The ACRES database does not contain a field to denote that no further assessment is needed at the
property. As a result, for the purposes of this evaluation, EPA considered a property to have completed
assessment only when a Phase I, Phase II, or Supplemental Environmental Site Assessment was
completed and no further assessment was in progress.

For properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants that had also completed
assessment, EPA classified properties based on whether cleanup was required, cleanup was not
required, or the cleanup requirement was not reported. Properties funded by 2003-2008 revolving loan
fund and cleanup grants were classified as requiring cleanup given that these funds are used exclusively
for cleanup activities.

Finally, for properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants, EPA
conducted an analysis of baseline property demographics leading to cleanup and redevelopment.
Demographic variables of interest included median household income, percentage of households in
poverty, percentage of the labor force that is unemployed, percentage of housing units that are vacant,
and median housing values. Demographic variables were summarized at the block group level from the
2000 Census of Population and Housing and matched to each property. The block group level was
selected because it represented the smallest geographic unit for which the demographic variables of
interest were publicly available. The block group associated with each property was identified using
ArcGIS Desktop ® 10.0 software (ESRI Inc., 2010). Statistical analyses were conducted using SAS ® 9.2
software (SAS Institute Inc., 2008).

Limitations

A limitation of the ACRES database is that property information is reported by Brownfields grant
recipients. While EPA project officers must approve the information reported, Brownfields grant
recipients are only required to report on properties during the three-year performance period of their
grant. Downstream property activities like redevelopment may not be expected to occur during this
period and may not be reported in the ACRES database as a result. The data collection described above
was an effort to address this limitation by supplementing the ACRES database with property activities
that may have occurred since an award closed. Nonetheless, the property milestones toward land
revitalization calculated in the following sections should be interpreted as lower bounds.

Results

The following section summarizes the main results concerning property milestones toward land
revitalization achieved by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.
The results of individual analyses are presented in tables and figures at the end of the section.

EPA identified 8,294 properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and
cleanup grants. Of this total, 7,787 properties (94%) were funded by assessment grants, 234 properties
(2.8%) were funded by revolving loan funds, and 449 properties (5.4%) were funded by cleanup grants.
The sum of these subtotals exceeds 8,294 because 169 properties (2.0%) were funded by more than one
type of Brownfields grant. Table 1 presents the number of properties funded by each type of
Brownfields grant by EPA Region. Figure 1 shows their geographic distribution across the U.S.

EPA tracked each property to the furthest milestone toward land revitalization achieved, stratifying
results based on whether cleanup was required, cleanup was not required, or the cleanup requirement
was not reported. The results are presented in Figure 2 and Tables 2A-2C. A total of 7,434 of 8,294
properties (90%) completed assessment. Of these 7,434 properties, 1,528 properties (21%) reported
that cleanup was required, 1,577 properties (21%) reported that cleanup was not required, and 4,329
properties (58%) did not report whether cleanup was required.

Following the group of 1,528 properties that reported cleanup was required, 764 properties (50%)
started cleanup, 618 properties (40%) completed cleanup, 546 properties (36%) were made ready for
reuse, 390 properties (26%) started redevelopment, and 76 properties (5.0%) completed
redevelopment. Following the group of 1,577 properties that reported cleanup was not required, 1,175
properties (77%) were made ready for reuse, 302 properties (20%) started redevelopment, and 79
properties (5.2%) completed redevelopment. Following the group of 4,329 properties that did not
report whether cleanup was required, 174 properties (4.0%) were made ready for reuse, 169 properties
(3.9%) started redevelopment, and 13 properties (0.3%) completed redevelopment. Taken as a whole, of
the 8,294 properties evaluated, 1,895 properties (23%) were made ready for reuse, 861 properties
(10%) started redevelopment, and 168 properties (2.0%) completed redevelopment.

EPA conducted separate analyses of property milestones toward land revitalization achieved by each
type of Brownfields grant. Of the 7,787 properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants,
6,927 properties (89%) completed assessment, 1,597 properties (21%) were made ready for reuse, 654
properties (8.4%) started redevelopment, and 131 properties (1.7%) completed redeveloped. The
results are presented in Figure 3 and Table 3. The results provide evidence that Brownfields assessment
grants provide benefits earlier in the land revitalization process by identifying properties for reuse that
do not require cleanup. For example, 1,379 of the 1,597 properties (86%) funded by 2003-2008
Brownfields assessment grants and made ready for reuse achieved this milestone without a cleanup.
Similarly, 506 of the 654 properties (77%) funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants with
redevelopment started achieved this milestone without a cleanup. These results corroborate the finding
that a majority of properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants that completed
assessment and reported whether cleanup was required did not require cleanup. Table 4 shows that

12


-------
1,577 of the 2,598 properties (61%) that completed assessment and reported whether cleanup was
required did not require cleanup. These results should be understood within the overall context of
underreported assessment results. In particular, a total of 4,329 of the 6,927 properties (62%) that
completed assessment did not report whether cleanup was required.

EPA determined the highest level of assessment completed at the 7,787 properties funded by 2003-
2008 Brownfields assessment grants and tracked each property to the furthest milestone toward land
revitalization achieved. The results are presented in Table 5. Of these 7,787 properties, 365 properties
(4.7%) had not started assessment, 495 properties (6.4%) had assessment in progress, 4,575 properties
(59%) had completed assessment with a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, 1,773 properties (23%)
had completed assessment with a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, and 579 properties (7.4%)
had completed assessment with a Supplemental Environmental Site Assessment.

The analysis reveals significant differences in progress toward land revitalization by the level of
assessment completed. For example, of the 4,575 properties that completed assessment with a Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment, 748 properties (16%) were made ready for reuse, 213 properties (4.7%)
started redevelopment, and 28 properties (0.6%) completed redevelopment. However, a substantially
higher percentage of properties that completed assessment with a Phase II or Supplemental
Environmental Site Assessment were made ready for reuse. Of the 1,773 properties that completed
assessment with a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, 671 properties (38%) were made ready for
reuse, 333 properties (19%) started redevelopment, and 74 properties (4.1%) completed
redevelopment. Similarly, of the 579 properties that completed assessment with a Supplemental
Environmental Site Assessment, 178 properties (31%) were made ready for reuse, 108 properties (19%)
started redevelopment, and 29 properties (5.0%) completed redevelopment.

Table 6 and Table 7A-7C stratify these results by whether cleanup was required, cleanup was not
required, or the cleanup requirement was not reported. Of the 4,575 properties that completed
assessment with a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, 193 properties (4.2%) reported that cleanup
was required, 887 properties (19%) reported that cleanup was not required, and 3,495 properties (76%)
did not report whether cleanup was required. Of the 1,773 properties that completed assessment with a
Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, 551 properties (31%) reported that cleanup was required, 595
properties (34%) reported that cleanup was not required, and 627 properties (35%) did not report
whether cleanup was required. Of the 579 properties that completed assessment with a Supplemental
Environmental Site Assessment, 277 properties (48%) reported that cleanup was required, 95 properties
(16%) reported that cleanup was not required, and 207 properties (36%) did not report whether cleanup
was required. Within each assessment category, nearly all properties that did not report whether
cleanup was required also did not indicate further progress toward land revitalization. For example,
3,404 of the 3,495 properties (97%) that completed assessment with a Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment and did not report whether cleanup was required also did not indicate further progress
toward land revitalization.

Turning to the 234 properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds, 184 properties
(79%) started cleanup, 144 properties (62%) completed cleanup, 122 properties (52%) were made ready

13


-------
for reuse, 91 properties (39%) started redevelopment, and 29 properties (12%) completed
redevelopment. The results are presented in Figure 4 and Table 9.

A similar pattern of results emerges for the 449 properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup
grants. Of these 449 properties, 373 properties (83%) started cleanup, 305 properties (68%) completed
cleanup, 262 properties (58%) were made ready for reuse, 171 properties (38%) started redevelopment,
and 21 properties (4.7%) completed redevelopment. The results are presented in Figure 5 and Table 11.

EPA also conducted an analysis of baseline property demographics leading to cleanup and
redevelopment for properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants.
Demographic variables of interest included median household income, percentage of households in
poverty, percentage of the labor force that is unemployed, percentage of housing units that are vacant,
and median housing values. Table 13 shows the mean values of these variables for the group of
properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds and the group of properties funded by
2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup grants. Kruskal-Wallis tests indicate no statistically significant
differences in baseline property demographics between the two groups.

Table 14 stratifies these results based on the subsequent cleanup and redevelopment status of the
group of properties funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds and the group of properties
funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup grants. Kruskal-Wallis tests indicate that revolving loan fund
properties that complete cleanup are, on average, in much better off areas at baseline than are
revolving loan fund properties that do not complete cleanup. In contrast, cleanup grant properties that
complete cleanup do not statistically differ at baseline from cleanup grant properties that do not
complete cleanup. A similar pattern holds for subsequent redevelopment status.

Since Brownfields revolving loan funds are permitted to finance cleanup with both loans and subgrants,
EPA conducted further analyses based on each type of funding source. A total of 175 of the 234
properties (75%) funded by 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds reported the type of funding
source. Of these 175 properties, 78 properties (45%) were funded by loans only, 80 properties (46%)
were funded by subgrants only, and 17 properties (9.7%) were funded by both loans and subgrants.
Table 15 shows that that each group of properties achieved similar progress toward land revitalization.

Finally, EPA analyzed baseline property demographics leading to cleanup and redevelopment based on
each type of funding source. The results are presented in Tables 16-17. Kruskal-Wallis tests indicate no
statistically significant differences in baseline property demographics among the groups of properties
funded by each type of funding source. The results are then stratified based on the subsequent cleanup
and redevelopment status of the group of properties funded by any loan and the group of properties
funded by any subgrant. Kruskal-Wallis tests indicate that properties funded by loans that complete
cleanup are, on average, in much better off areas at baseline than properties funded by loans that do
not complete cleanup. In contrast, properties funded by subgrants that complete cleanup do not
statistically differ at baseline from properties funded by subgrants that do not complete cleanup. A
similar pattern did not emerge for subsequent redevelopment status.

Note: Column totals of properties funded by each type of grant sum to 8470 instead of to 8294 because 169 properties

were funded by more than one type of grant. Seven of these 169 properties were funded by all three types of grants,
which explains why 8470 - 8294 = 176.

Program Management, Outputs, and Efficiencies of
2003-2008 Brownfields Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup Grants

-------
Data and Methods

The following section describes the data sources and methods used to examine program management,
outputs, and efficiencies of 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants.

Data Sources

Data sources for analysis included EPA's Assessment, Cleanup, and Redevelopment Exchange System
(ACRES), an online database for Brownfields grant recipients to electronically submit property
information to EPA; supplemental information on property activities from EPA Regional Offices; and
Brownfields grant financial data from the Office of the Chief Financial Officer Reporting and Business
Intelligence Tool (ORBIT). Data management and statistical analyses were performed using SAS ® 9.2
software (SAS Institute Inc., 2008).

Methods

EPA queried the ACRES database (data accessed July 11, 2011) to identify the administrative records and
property activities associated with each 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and
cleanup grant. In addition, EPA queried the ORBIT database (data accessed June 9, 2011) to identify the
financial obligations and dollars drawn down for each grant, and then merged the relevant information
from both databases prior to analysis.

For each grant, EPA calculated the dollars obligated, the dollars drawn down, and the corresponding
percentage of the obligation drawn down. EPA then determined the number of property milestones
produced per 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grant. Property
milestones of interest included Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, Phase II Environmental Site
Assessments, Supplemental Site Assessments, completed cleanups, and redevelopments.

EPA analyzed the efficiency with which 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants produce
environmental assessments by calculating the average number of assessments completed per dollar
obligated and per dollar drawn down. Similarly, EPA calculated the efficiency with which 2003-2008
Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants produce cleanups by calculating the average number
of cleanups completed per dollar obligated and per dollar drawn down.

Finally, EPA determined the award status of each 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan
fund, and cleanup grant, the number of associated properties per grant, and the number of grants that
produced GPRA accomplishments related to assessment, cleanup, or redevelopment activities.

Results

The following section summarizes the main results concerning program management, outputs, and
efficiencies of 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants. The results
of individual analyses are presented in tables and figures at the end of the section.

EPA awarded 860 assessment grants, 124 grants to capitalize revolving loan funds, and 459 cleanup
grants over fiscal years 2003-2008. Financial obligations were obtained for 840 assessment grants
totaling $202.2 million, 106 revolving loan funds totaling $145.5 million, and 441 cleanup grants totaling
$91.8 million. Tables 18-21 present these figures by EPA Region and award year.

For each 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grant for which financial
obligations were obtained, EPA calculated the dollars drawn down and the percentage of the obligation
that had been drawn down. Tables 22-23 present these figures by EPA Region and award year. The
results indicate that 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds have been significantly less drawn
down (54% drawn down) than 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment (87% drawn down) and cleanup
grants (86% drawn down).

EPA calculated the number of property milestones associated with each 2003-2008 Brownfields
assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grant. Tables 24-25 present the figures for 2003-2008
Brownfields assessment grants by EPA Region and award year. On average, each Brownfield assessment
grant was associated with 7.6 Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, 2.6 Phase II Environmental Site
Assessments, 0.67 Supplemental Environmental Site Assessments, 0.14 completed cleanups, and 1.3
redevelopments. Tables 26-27 present the figures for 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan funds by
EPA Region and award year. On average, each Brownfield revolving loan fund was associated with 0.27
Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, 0.23 Phase II Environmental Site Assessments, 0.24
Supplemental Environmental Site Assessments, 0.98 completed cleanups, and 0.70 redevelopments.
Tables 28-29 present the figures for 2003-2008 Brownfields cleanup grants by EPA Region and award
year. On average, each Brownfield cleanup grant was associated with 0.22 Phase I Environmental Site
Assessments, 0.23 Phase II Environmental Site Assessments, 0.15 Supplemental Environmental Site
Assessments, 0.61 completed cleanups, and 0.44 redevelopments.

EPA combined these outputs with financial obligations and dollars drawn down to examine the
efficiency with which 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment grants produced environmental assessments.
Tables 30-31 present the number of assessments completed per dollar obligated to 2003-2008
Brownfields assessments grants by EPA Region and award year. Tables 32-33 present analogous figures
per dollar drawn down. On average, assessment grants produced a completed assessment for every
$21,683 obligated and for every $18,605 drawn down.

EPA compared the efficiency with which 2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants
produced cleanups. Tables 34-35 present the number of cleanups completed per dollar obligated to
2003-2008 Brownfields revolving loan fund and cleanup grants by EPA Region and award year. Tables
36-37 present analogous figures per dollar drawn down. Under both measures, cleanup grants were

43


-------
substantially more efficient than revolving loan funds at producing cleanups. On average, revolving loan
funds produced a completed cleanup for every $1,222,939 obligated and for every $615,155 drawn
down, while cleanup grants produced a completed cleanup for every $332,709 obligated and for every
$284,176 drawn down. The ratios of these figures imply that cleanup grants were 3.7 times more
efficient in terms of dollars obligated and 2.2 times more efficient in terms of dollars drawn down.

These ratios should be interpreted with caution in the absence of further information about the total
cost and complexity of cleanups at revolving loan fund vs. cleanup grant properties.

EPA examined several additional indicators of program management, including the award status of each
2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grant, the number of associated
properties per grant, and the number of grants that produced GPRA accomplishments related to
assessment, cleanup, or redevelopment activities. Tables 38-39 report the number and percentage of
2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grants with an open vs. closed
award status by EPA Region and award year. A total of 422 of 860 assessment grants (49%), 24 of 124
revolving loan funds (19%), and 248 of 459 cleanup grants (54%) had closed awards.

Tables 40-41 show the number of associated properties entered in the ACRES database per 2003-2008
Brownfields assessment, revolving loan fund, and cleanup grant by EPA Region and award year. On
average, assessment grants were associated with 9.33 properties, revolving loan funds were associated
with 1.93 properties, and cleanup grants were associated with 0.98 properties. Tables 42-43 show the
number of these grants with no associated properties entered in the ACRES database. A total of 141 of
860 assessment grants (16%), 54 of 124 revolving loan funds (44%), and 73 of 459 cleanup grants (16%)
had no associated properties entered in the ACRES database.

Finally, Tables 44-45 report the number and percentage of 2003-2008 Brownfields assessment, revolving
loan fund, and cleanup grants that produced GPRA accomplishments by EPA Region and award year. A
total of 651 of 860 assessment grants (76%), 54 of 124 revolving loan funds (44%), and 267 of 459
cleanup grants (58%) produced GPRA accomplishments related to assessment, cleanup, or
redevelopment activities.
