Brownfield Revitalization
Clean Ohio Fund >
Brownfield cleanup and redevelopment activities improve communities as dilapidated and often dangerous buildings are demolished or renovated and contaminated soil is removed and replaced. Such improvements create a sense of possibility and renewal in the community. Environmental changes ensure that there are no unacceptable risks associated with reusing the property as planned.
Getting Started Statement:
Does your community have an old industrial facility sitting vacant or a commercial building containing asbestos? Would you like to redevelop the building or demolish it and reuse the land?
Consider the Clean Ohio Revitalization and Assistance Fund programs.
Once a site has been designated a brownfield, the Clean Ohio Revitalization or Assistance Fund can provide grant money for various activities, including Asbestos Surveys, Phase II Environmental Assessments, demolition, removal of contaminated soil and groundwater, and a host of other remediation strategies. Ultimately, by meeting the standards set forth in the Ohio Voluntary Action Program (VAP), a property can earn a No Further Action (NFA) letter prepared by a Certified Professional. This letter will be reviewed by the Ohio EPA, who issues a Covenant Not to Sue (CNS) for the property, giving economic interests the confidence to develop there.
Staff from the Ohio Department of Development and the Ohio EPA is available by phone or e-mail to help guide you through the funding process.
