Washington, D.C. -- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced an initiative focused on suggested models for land reuse within EPA’s cleanup programs. These programs include Superfund, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Underground Storage Tanks and Brownfields. Under the initiative, called the Land Revitalization Agenda, EPA will exact grant resources from federal cleanup programs and put to a test written determinations that cleaned-up lands are ready for use. The initiative was announced April 22, Earth Day.
