A Brownfields site is defined as an abandoned, idle,
or under-used industrial or commercial facility where expansion or
redevelopment is complicated by real or perceived environmental
contamination. The goal of the EPA grant is to identify and address
environmental contamination issues so that Brownfields properties can be
readied for reuse and redevelopment. For the property to be eligible for
remediation grant funding, there can be no financially viable responsible party
connected to the Brownfields site.
EPA has selected the City of San Bernardino for two
Brownfields assessment grants. Hazardous Substances grant funds will be used to
conduct up to 6 Phase-I and 2 Phase-II Environmental Site Assessments.
Petroleum grant funds will be used to conduct up to 10 Phase-I and 3 Phase-II
environmental site assessments. Grant funds will also be used to develop an
inventory of sites and support community outreach activities
EDA is currently soliciting sites to include in this
grant funded program, and is accepting public comment and site nominations
for Brownfields sites within the grant's pre-defined study area of the City
until 4:00 p.m. Friday, September 12, 2008.
