PROPOSALS SOUGHT FOR BROWNFIELDS CLEANUP REVOLVING LOAN FUND PILOTS
FOR RELEASE: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1999

EPA is accepting proposals for Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund
Pilots until Feb. 7, 2000. The pilots, which are funded up to $500,000,
test cleanup and redevelopment planning models, direct special efforts
toward removing regulatory barriers without sacrificing protectiveness and
facilitate coordinated environmental cleanup and redevelopment efforts at
the federal, state and local levels. EPA will select up to 70 additional
Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund Pilots by March 2000. The pilots
will be selected on a competitive basis. Selection criteria are outlined in
the newly revised guidelines, "The Brownfields Economic Redevelopment
Initiative: Proposal Guidelines for Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund
(November 1999)." Copies of the document are available at:
http://www.epa.gov/brownfields/. or from the Superfund
