MassDEP staff announce fourth statewide Brownfields roundtable and EPA grant timeline
Summary
Diane Baxter said four Brownfields roundtables were held statewide and the fourth will be Sept. 17 in Springfield; she reminded attendees that EPA Brownfields grant announcements are expected in September with applications due in November and directed questions to David Foss.
Diane Baxter provided an update on the Brownfields outreach schedule, saying the agency has held four roundtables this year and that the fourth will be Sept. 17 in Springfield at the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission offices. “We've had a series of 4, 4 Brownfields roundtables around the state this year, and the 4th 1 is coming up on September 17th in Springfield at the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission offices,” Baxter said.
Baxter also reminded attendees about the upcoming EPA Brownfields grant application cycle: announcements should be released in September and applications will be due in November. She directed anyone with questions about the program or the application process to contact David Foss for assistance.
The presentation was brief and focused on outreach and application timing. Baxter closed by encouraging interested parties to sign up for the Springfield roundtable and to contact program staff with questions. No formal action or vote was recorded on the item, and MassDEP staff asked for input from advisory members and licensed site professionals to help refine outreach and application support.
