Available Funding for Brownfield Assessments and Cleanup
Through grants from EPA, RPC's Brownfield Redevelopment Program can pay for Phase I and Phase II
environmental site assessments of Brownfield sites in Jefferson, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, and St.
Tammany Parishes.
Private owners and companies, non-profit organizations, and public entities are all eligible to receive funding.
Please contact the Brownfield Coordinator at (504) 483-8500 to determine eligibility for specific projects.
Funding is available on a first-come, first-served basis. RPC selects the contractor to perform the assessment and
oversees the investigation to ensure that it meets EPA's standards. The applicant has input into the decision
process and is involved in every step of the investigation.
Funding for clean-up activities is available through LDEQ's Brownfield Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund (BCRLF) and
EPA's Brownfield Cleanup Grant competition.
