DEM ANNOUNCES NEW ROUND OF BROWNFIELDS GRANT FUNDING
$2.6 million is available to clean up contaminated land, spur economic growth, and create jobs. DEM is encouraging proposals aiming to revitalize brownfield sites for new projects generating energy from green, renewable sources.

PROVIDENCE – The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) today announced new funding opportunities to support the cleanup and redevelopment of contaminated properties, known as brownfields, across the state. In all, more than $2.6 million is available. Funded projects will support a healthier environment and economy, create jobs, and promote renewable energy uses at these locations.

 

"Cleaning up and redeveloping brownfields sites benefits Rhode Island’s environment, families, and economy,” said Governor Gina M. Raimondo. “We’re investing millions in improving our infrastructure and catalyzing economic growth through the brownfields program by opening up valuable real estate for redevelopment. With this round of funding, we’re encouraging proposals that will convert revitalized brownfield sites into new projects generating energy from renewable resources, which will help meet our bold goals for Rhode Island to become a cleaner, greener state.”
