Brownfields are properties that may have hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants present. The EPA Brownfields Program provides grants and technical assistance to communities, states, tribes and others to assess, safely clean up and sustainable reuse these contaminated properties. Cleaning up and reinvesting in brownfields protects human health and the environment, reduces blight, and takes development pressures off greenspaces and working lands. To learn more about the EPA broader efforts to put previously contaminated properties back into productive use, read about the EPA Land Revitalization Program.
