Coastal Brownfields Home
The NOAA Coastal Brownfields Web site explains NOAA's involvement in coastal brownfields and provides detailed information about specific activities that are currently underway within NOAA. Brownfields are properties where the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse may be complicated by the presence of contamination. NOAA works closely with the Environmental Protection Agency and our federal partners to support community-based brownfields cleanup and redevelopment across the country.
