Brownfields Job Training and Development Cooperative Agreements
|
EPA's brownfield program helps communities clean up and redevelop properties. EPA defines a brownfield site as "real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be contaminated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant." The program helps mitigate potential health risks and assists in restoring economic vitality to areas where brownfields exist. The objectives of the Brownfields Job Training Grants are to prepare trainees for future employment in the environmental field and facilitate the clean-up of brownfields sites. The grant recipients must prepare trainees in activities that can be usefully applied to a clean-up. |
