RACW EPA Grants RACW received EPA funds for assessments More brownfields than funding!

A Collaboration Regional Authority of the County of Washington (PA) Western Pennsylvania Brownfields Center at Carnegie Mellon

Goal Select sites for environmental assessments EPA assessment funds are limited Involve Community in site selection process Develop transparent, rational tool for site selection

Creating the Tool Developed Indicator categories and assessment criteria Ranking Session with RACW Created site census based on these categories/criteria for municipal officials Score these and enter into tool Each indicator weighted according to the RACW’s priorities

How to Judge a Site: 5 Indicators Defined Development Driver/Champion Indicator –Is there a developer or municipality driving development Development Potential Indicator –The degree of developmental progress on a particular site and the expected ease of redevelopment Socioeconomic Indicator –The social and economic benefits of redeveloping a site for the surrounding community Environmental Indicator –The likelihood and degree of environmental contamination of a site, either real or suspected and the environmental benefits of redevelopment Infrastructure Indicator –The degree of infrastructure in and surrounding a site

Drilling Down: Sub-Indicators Developmental Driver Indicator –Developer Champion –Municipal Champion Developmental Indicator –End Use –Funding –Time –Property Ownership Socioeconomic Indicator –Economic Potential –Environmental Justice –Community Support –Quality of Life Environmental Indicator –Contamination –Previous Use of Site –Location Infrastructure Indicator –Transportation System –Public Utilities

Developed Site Census Based on Indicators For example: –Development Driver/Champion Indicator “Has a developer expressed interest in the site?” Yes, and has funds for development Yes, but does not have adequate funding Somewhat, but only a preliminary interest No, no party has expressed interest –Infrastructure Indicator “Does the site have connection/access to…” Municipal water Sewage System Power Grid

1. Site Census Distributed and Collected 2. Information Entered into Tool

RACW ranked five main indicators as well as sub-indicators They decide which scores are most significant! Weighting

Future Steps RACW - Rank sites and perform Phase I assessments WPBC - continue to refine tool and introduce to more communities
