Make brownfields sites more feasible for redevelopment

Some communities have property where potential contamination complicates possible redevelopment. To revitalize these “brownfields sites,” property owners must adhere to federal and state guidelines intended to ensure safe reuse of the land.

How DFI can help

DFI helps local governments with approaches to make brownfields sites more feasible for redevelopment. They work closely with project partners to understand the condition of the site and resources available to make projects a reality. This includes:

  • Understanding tools available to remove redevelopment barriers

  • Identifying finance tools to make development feasible

  • Working with external partners like the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
