Superfund and Brownfield Grants (EPA)

Superfund & Brownfield Grants:  These grants consist of federal government assistance to states and communities in cleaning up sites potentiallt contaminated.
Brownfield sites -  are real property affected by the potential presence of environmental contamination
Superfund sites- abandoned industrial areas that have experienced active dumping of dangerous chemicals in the past. 
The enactment of the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act in 2002 authorized Congress to give the EPA authorization to oversee the distribution of these grants and the clean up.
