Oklahoma Brownfields Conference 2006 is reaching out to property owners,
public sector, and private sector entities with a stake in redevelopment
in our state. There are many important regulatory requirements that must
be considered when developing a site with known or suspected environmental
issues. There are also many layers of technical and financial resources
available to assist eligible entities during redevelopment projects.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) defines a Brownfield as: “<I><SPAN
style="FONT-STYLE: italic">real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or
reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of
a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant.</SPAN></I>” Brownfields
can be abandoned gas stations, dry cleaners, salvage yards, rail yards,
former industrial sites, buildings with indoor hazards such as asbestos or
lead based paint, mine scarred lands, or sites contaminated with
controlled substances. The definition of a Brownfield has been greatly
broadened in recent years, and rules for eligibility and use of funding
have also become more flexible. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></TD></TR>
