Background: These brownfield grants may be used to

contaminants (including hazardous substances co-mingled with petroleum).
Opportunities for funding are as follows: Brownfield Assessment Grants (each
funded up to $200,000 over three years; Assessment Coalitions are funded up to
$600,000 over three years) and Brownfield Cleanup Grants (each funded up to
$200,000 over three years). Please note that applicants who received an
Assessment grant from EPA in Fiscal Year 2014 (FY14) are eligible to apply under
this competition. If the applicant was a member of a coalition that was awarded
a grant in FY14, that applicant is also eligible to apply under this assessment
competition. The proposal submission deadline is December 19,
