Two Iowa Cities Receive US EPA Brownfields Funds

Two Iowa communities will receive grants from EPA Region 7 to clean up hazardous substances at abandoned and underutilized properties. The funding is part of more than $76 million in cleanup and revolving loan funds that EPA is issuing to clean up and revitalize properties across the country.

The two Iowa communities selected to receive Brownfields funding are:
1. Arlington, Iowa, which will receive $200,000 to clean up hazardous inorganic materials at the former Arlington School and,
2. Council Bluffs, Iowa, which will receive $200,000 to clean up the former Katelman Foundry.

These communities were selected from a national list of 214 applicants to address existing brownfield properties.
