Book excerpt: Virtually every city in the nation's older industrial regions, no matter its size, grapples with the challenge of unused or abandoned manufacturing facilities and other industrial sites. Local public officials, economic development practitioners, and site owners who have sought to revitalize fallow industrial properties face daunting challenges: contamination of the buildings, equipment, and surrounding land and water. Public concern about health effects from hazardous chemicals, changing environmental law, and evolving private sector development and financing priorities have made it increasingly difficult for communities to restore and reuse former manufacturing sites. This study, sponsored by the Northeast-Midwest Institute, offers analysis and practical guidance on how these blighted areas—brownfields—have been and can be brought back to life.

Book Reclaiming Brownfields

Download or read book Reclaiming Brownfields written by Richard C. Hula and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environmental legacy of past industrial and agricultural development can simultaneously pose serious threats to human health and impede reuse of contaminated land. The urban landscape around the world is littered with sites contaminated with a variety of toxins produced by past use. Both public and private sector actors are often reluctant to make significant investments in properties that simultaneously pose significant potential human health issues, and may demand complex and very expensive cleanups. The chapters in this volume recognize that land and water contamination are now almost universally acknowledged to be key social, economic, and political issues. How multiple societies have attempted to craft and implement public policy to deal with these issues provides the central focus of the book. The volume is unique in that it provides a global comparative perspective on brownfield policy and examples of its use in a variety of countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brownfields are abandoned or underused industrial and commercial facilities where expansion or redevelopment is complicated by environmental contamination that may present direct public health hazards.

Ultimately, the private real estate market will determine how brownfields are reused, but this report concludes that government must also act to protect the public interest.
