County approves Partners Environmental proposals to inventory brownfields in Piketon and Beaver
Summary
Washington County commissioners approved two proposals from Partners Environmental to prepare brownfield inventories for the EPA Brownfield Coalition Grant in the Villages of Piketon ($7,670) and Beaver ($5,915).
The Washington County commissioners voted Nov. 13 to hire Partners Environmental to prepare brownfield inventories in two villages as part of an EPA Brownfield Coalition Grant application.
Commissioner Eddie D. Place moved to approve the Piketon proposal at a fee of $7,670; Commissioner Charlie L. Schilling seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The board then approved a similar Partners Environmental proposal for the Village of Beaver at a fee of $5,915.
Meeting minutes describe the inventories as intended to help identify brownfields, reverse community decline and promote future development. The minutes show the bids were accepted and fee amounts recorded; the record does not include the full inventory scope or a completion schedule. Port Authority or planning staff were not quoted in the brownfield segments.
The approvals advance two inventories that county staff and consultants will use to support a regional EPA coalition grant application and potential remediation planning.
