Brownfields
TerraGraphics has
been assisting with the development of contaminated sites for 20 years. Prior
to the recent Brownfields program, TerraGraphics developed a philosophy of development
through remediation and remediation through development. This philosophy has
been successfully implemented in our projects to:
- Protect
the Environment Addressing brownfields to ensure the health and well-being
of people and environment,
- Promote
Partnerships Collaborating and communicating are essential to facilitate brownfields
cleanup and reuse,
- Strengthen
the Marketplace Providing financial and technical assistance to bolster the
private market,
- Sustain
& Reuse Redeveloping brownfields to enhance a community’s long-term
quality of life,
- while at
the same time saving our clients money by incorporating cleanup efforts into
the development planning process.
TerraGraphics successfully
assists clients from the initial grant writing and submittal to the final sustainable
redevelopment phase of their projects.
The four types
of EPA brownfields funding:
- Assessment Grants
provide funding for Brownfields inventories, planning, environmental assessments,
and community outreach.
- Revolving Loan
Fund Grants provide funding to capitalize loans that are used to clean up
brownfields.
- Cleanup Grants
provide direct funding for cleanup activities at certain properties with planned
green space, recreation, or other nonprofit reuses.
- Job Training
Grants provide environmental training for residents of brownfields communities.
No matter what
the funding mechanism, TerraGraphics has the experience and technical skills
to assist social and economically depressed community in challenging multi-stakeholder
projects where environmental issues are preventing potential redevelopment and
economic stimulus.
