The EPA is announcing $11 million in grants to provide technical assistance to communities. The EPA anticipates award of up to 11 cooperative agreement(s) – one grant covering each EPA region and an eleventh grant covering the entire nation. Grants awarded under the Technical Assistance to Brownfields Communities (TAB) announcement will help communities tackle the challenge of assessing, cleaning up and preparing brownfields sites for redevelopment, especially underserved/rural/small and otherwise distressed communities. Technical assistance being provided through this grant will be geared toward results and help communities within their respective regions to move brownfields sites forward in the process toward cleanup and reuse. The maximum value of each grant will be based on the technical assistance being provided; however, grants in any one geographical area will not exceed $1,000,000. The proposal deadline is December 21, 2015.
