In many communities, economic redevelopment is centered around so-called “Brownfields.” As defined by the U.S. EPA, a Brownfield is “a property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant.”

Cleaning up and reinvesting in these properties takes development pressure off of undeveloped, open land (Greenfields), while eliminating hazards to human health and the environment.

For Brownfield owners or applicants, Conrad Geoscience provides services ranging from preparation of the initial application to enter the Brownfield Program, through site assessment and remediation.
