"PROVIDENCE, RI – Governor Dan McKee and the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) announced new funding opportunities for the cleanup and redevelopment of contaminated properties, known as brownfields, across Rhode Island. DEM is seeking proposals for brownfield site redevelopment projects that will support the cleanup of contaminated property to transform underused brownfield sites into locations that add value to communities. Redevelopment/reuse plans that support a positive impact on the community with amenities available for public use, and targeted community engagement opportunities for designated Environmental Justice (EJ) areas will be scored favorably. EJ areas and/or community enrichment for historically low-income areas throughout Rhode Island are an area of focus for this grant round."

Join our Government Market Leader, Andrea Jenney, at the Real Property Institute of Canada (RPIC) 2024 Federal Contaminated Sites Regional Workshop on June 26-27th in Edmonton! Andrea will be presenting on, "The Remediation of Akpatok Island – Synergy of Collaboration". Executing the successful remediation of CIRNAC’s Akpatok Island Site is no small feat considering its location on a remote island in Ungava Basin, just north of Nunavik. This former oil and gas exploration site was successfully remediated in 2023. The project faced many challenges including assessment during the COVID-19 pandemic, multi-jurisdictional permitting due to its geographic location in Nunavut and its inclusion in the Nunavik Inuit Land Claim Agreement, post-pandemic charter aircraft and barge availability and its remote location which was susceptible to weather. Join in person or online to hear from Andrea about BluMetric's experience with the Remediation of Akpatok Island. Andrea will be presenting with Public Services and Procurement Canada | Services publics et Approvisionnement Canada and Englobe! #EnvironmentalSolutions #ContaminatedSites #SiteAssessment #Remediation #Collaboration #Remote #Community #Canada #BluMetric

When a property’s redevelopment is considered contaminated due to pollution or hazardous materials, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) deems that site as a brownfield. Unfortunately, many urban spaces are deemed #brownfields as past contamination leaves properties unusable. Join us as we discuss the top challenges and barriers of decarbonizing brownfields in our #webinar “Breaking Decarbonization Barriers for Brownfields” on April 10. Together, we can transform sites that detract from communities into productive spaces that improve the societal and economic outlook of a neighborhood. Register here: https://lnkd.in/efAMuthq
