Oklahoma Brownfields Conference focuses on redeveloping old properties

Oklahoma will host a Brownfields Conference May 22-23, 2012, in Oklahoma City.

Rose Valley School
This property was the subject of a Phase 1
environmental review through EPA funds. 
Brownfields are properties that have lost value
due to real or perceived environmental contamination. Brownfields funds are available to evaluate and clean up those properties so they can be put back into use in the community.

Properties that once housed gas stations or dry cleaners are especially popular for Brownfields funding in small towns. Since almost every property could contain asbestos, it makes sense for many different projects. Every small town government should know about the Brownfields funding for redeveloping old properties.
