City Survey Says Assessment Grants Gave Biggest Boost to Brownfields Redevelopment

摘要

A report by the U.S. Conference of Mayors indicates that federal brownfields assessment funding has been the single most important factor in successful redevelopment of thousands of unproductive urban properties since the Environmental Protection Agency launched the program in 1993.rnThe report, Recycling America's Land: A National Report on Brownfields Redevelopment (1993-2010), was released Nov. 9 and is a 17-year retrospective on progress nationwide since the brownfields program was spun off from EPA's superfund program in 1993.
