Brownfields Sustainability Pilots

You will need Adobe Reader to view some of the files on this page. See EPA's PDF page to learn more.

The Brownfields Sustainability Pilots are an EPA effort to promote environmental sustainability at local brownfields projects. EPA is providing communities with technical assistance to help them achieve greener assessment, cleanup, and redevelopment at their brownfields. Assistance will support activities such as the reuse and recycling of construction and demolition materials, green building and infrastructure design, energy efficiency, water conservation, renewable energy development, and native landscaping. These pilots will also demonstrate best practices that can be used by other communities across the country.
