EPA Brownfield Grant Review
If you are located in EPA Regions 9 and 10 (AK, AZ, CA, HI, ID, NV, OR, WA, and the Pacific Islands), we provide annual review of EPA brownfield grants – a primary source of funding for many communities with brownfields. Contact us with your draft application after the guidelines have been released (usually in the fall), and we’ll give you detailed recommendations. We are also available to answer questions and help you prepare early, before the guidelines are out. If you are located outside of EPA Regions 9 and 10, please see information on our consulting services or contact us for information on how we may be able to provide discounted support based on project merit and demonstration of need. You can also contact your TAB provider.
“I was very impressed with the fast turnaround from CCLR in reviewing my drafts proposal. It was really helpful to be given a summarized checklist of each section of the proposal. I would definitely use CCLR again and recommend them to other entities.” -2020 grant applicant
