Saturday February 03 08:00 AM EST EPA loan being used to turn ex-dump into athletic fields By Marlys Duran, News Staff Writer ENGLEWOOD -- The largest loan to come out of a federal environmental-cleanup program is being used by city officials to turn a former dump into athletic fields. Englewood borrowed $709,000 through the Environmental Protection Agency's "brownfields" program to vent methane gas and put a clay cap on the former landfill, which is in Sheridan but will become part of Englewood's adjacent Centennial Park. The city will spend more than $2.2 million in additional money to develop the 9.4 acres with three lighted ball fields, restrooms, trail connections and kayak access to the South Platte River.
