The Environmental Protection Agency Region 6 awarded the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality a $3.9 million Cooperative Agreement under the Brownfields Multipurpose, Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup Cooperative Agreements program (CFDA 66.818) for the period of October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2027.
Through this award, the Department will recapitalize its Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund to $1.7 million to provide loans and subawards to eligible entities for the assessment and remediation of contaminated brownfield sites across Oklahoma. In addition to site cleanup activities, the Department will conduct community outreach and involvement efforts including public meetings, marketing, and decision documents. It will also oversee environmental professionals, prepare quarterly reports, and maintain an administrative record for each site. The program aims to benefit Oklahoma residents, businesses and stakeholders through the redevelopment of formerly contaminated properties.
