Emerging Issues in Brownfields - New Directions 

May 31, 2018

This course will present the new directions brownfield redevelopment projects will be taking in 2018 and beyond. The morning session will focus on providing a regulatory update on issues affecting redevelopment projects, an update on the LSRP program, and the impact proposed changes will have on brownfields projects. In addition, funding incentives will be discussed, to include the Real Estate Impact Fund and HDSRF, as well as pending changes via SARA 2.0. Technical updates will focus on alternative remediation standards and how the new cleanup standards will impact ongoing and emerging projects.
