Whether you're a developer, environmentalist, local community member, or simply curious, this event is for you!

Discover free resources, innovative strategies, success stories, and funding opportunities from industry experts. Network with like-minded individuals and gain insights to make a positive impact in the District. Don't miss out on this opportunity to be part of the solution!

Mid-Atlantic TAB, the regional provider of free technical assistance to brownfields communities, is funded by the EPA. We serve EPA Region 3, which includes D.C., Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia.

We are hosting two Brownfields 101 workshops on July 23 and July 24 that are designed to be an introduction to brownfields. We cover what properties are considered brownfields, how to remediate and redevelop them, and what free resources and funding opportunities are available to communities. We also review inspiring success stories and redevelopment ideas.
