This $660,103 project grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 1 supports the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation's (VT DEC) response program under the State and Tribal Response Program Grants (CFDA #66.817).

The objective is to assist in remediating and redeveloping brownfield properties, which are sites complicated by potential hazardous substances. The grant period runs from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
