The California Trade and Commerce Agency will assist in coordinating 
environmental site evaluations for up to six, closed mill sites 
throughout California.  The state's Mill Reuse Pilot Program, which is 
being modeled after the Oregon Mill site Conversion Project, intends 
minimize risk to landowners requiring Phase I and II assessments. The U.S. 
EPA Brownfields Pilot grant program is providing $200,000 in seed money for 
Mill Pilot Program. Preliminary selection is expected to be complete by 
April 1999.

Communities, counties, cities and mill site property owners interested in 
receiving an application package are encouraged to contact Karen Homolac, 
at the California Trade and Commerce Agency's Sacramento Regional 
Office,  916/324-8656. Her E-mail address is: khomolac@commerce.ca.gov.
