The goal of the meeting is to dispel common myths about brownfield liability and to present objective information about how organizations or municipalities can start their own brownfield redevelopment projects, according to a news release.
A presentation on brownfields, including the state’s voluntary cleanup process, funding sources and federal liabilities, will be included. DEM in October announced $2.6 million in grant awards to 12 projects.
