The Road Map is designed to assist in the identification and selection of innovative characterization and cleanup technologies for brownfields revelopment. The Road Map provides a generally applicable outline of the steps involved in the cleanup of a site slated for redevelopment and introduces brownfields stakeholders to the range of innovative technology options and resources available to them. The Road Map is intended for the various individuals involved in or affected by the redevelopment of brownfields sites, whether public projects, private developments, or public-private partnerships. The second edition, which incorporates minor revisions in the structure and content of the first edition, has been expanded significantly to include new and updated resources and is accompanied by the 'Tool Kit of Information Resources for Brownfields Investigation and Cleanup,' now available in CD-ROM format. The Road Map is primarily targeted at those stakeholders who will make decisions about brownfield sites, but who may not be familiar with many of the elements involved in cleaning up those sites. Its purpose is to promote innovative site characterization and cleanup technologies that can speed up the progress of brownfields projects and reduce the expense they entail.
