The Metlakatla Indian Community received a $105,000 Project Grant award from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the State and Tribal Response Program Grants (CFDA 66.817) to support its Brownfield Response Program. The program will conduct timely surveys and inventories of Brownfield sites on the Annette Islands Reserve, provide oversight and enforcement of response actions to protect human health and the environment, and ensure meaningful public involvement in the cleanup and redevelopment of contaminated properties. Funding will also support approval of cleanup plans and verification of completed responses. The objective is to remediate and redevelop Brownfield sites throughout the Reserve using the Community's response authorities and resources provided under the award, which runs from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022.
