A brownfield is a commercial or industrial site
that has been adversely affected by actual or perceived
contamination. As a result, it is abandoned, idle or underused.
CWE is uniquely qualified to assist local
governments, lenders, corporations, developers, and landowners in
the development and implementation of plans to restore these
properties. Let us help you take the initiative to create a program that may generate any number of benefits, including:
|
|
• creating new jobs in your community |
|
|
• improving the environment |
|
|
• returning contaminated sites to productive use |
|
|
• increasing the tax base |
|
|
• promoting economic development |
|
|
• preserving farmland and greenspace |
|
|
• making better use of existing
infrastructure
|
Our environmental services group can assist
property owners who want to redevelop brownfields by outlining
numerous types of state and federal programs available. These
include limited liability for purchasers, grant programs, loan
guarantees, tax incentives and tax increment financing.
Together, we can brainstorm possibilities for
redevelopment and evaluate the merits of each approach. CWE's
experience enables us to provide you with a detailed cost-analysis
of each alternative.
We'll help you investigate conditions at a
brownfield property by performing Phase I or II Environmental Site
Assessments. Then, if remedial action is necessary, CWE will work
with you to implement a timely and cost-effective solution.
If construction is part of the redevelopment
process, CWE's civil engineering and architectural staff can
provide infrastructure revisions, site planning and building design, as
well as other services.
Whether you need help understanding state or
federal brownfield assistance programs, creating a site plan,
cleaning up contamination, or designing a new building for a
brownfield site, CWE is your source for professional
services. |
