Brownfields Tribal Response Program

The Brownfields Program was established to assist with the redevelopment of contaminated, perceived to be contaminated, or underutilized properties. These properties are often abandoned and left vacant due to the environmental liabilities associated with it. It is the EPA’s and the Office of Environmental Programs goal to return these properties into useable and productive assets.
