New Round of Funding Will Help Clean Up and Reactivate Connecticut Brownfields

Connecticut Brownfield Remediation Program Application Deadline is April 14
 
Governor Dannel P. Malloy today announced the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) is now accepting applications for a new round of grant funding of up to $7.5 million that will be awarded to help remediate and redevelop brownfield sites throughout the state.  A total of $6.5 million will be earmarked for remediation projects and $1 million will be earmarked for assessment projects.
 
"With the right investment, state and local governments can work together to restore blighted properties that can bolster our economy and add to our quality of life," said Governor Malloy.  "When we clean up these sites and repurpose them, we can turn what was once an eyesore into a community asset that can help revitalize a neighborhood and spark economic growth."
