The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced grants totaling over $8 million to expedite the assessment and cleanup of brownfield sites from President Biden's Investing in America Agenda. Brownfields are properties where the expansion, redevelopment or reuse is complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. The lands were formerly used for commercial and industrial purposes. The EPA has selected eight communities in Indiana to receive eight grants totaling $5,066,000 in competitive EPA Brownfields funding through the Multipurpose, Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup (MARC) Grant programs.
