Seeking more clarity, always!  State & Tribal funding aka 128(a) funding is moving toward an allocation formula.  Power+ Plan – look for it in AWP, possibly Job Training  Climate Change – now required in the Analysis of Brownfield Alternative (ABCA)s, may be expanding it into assessment and cleanup guidelines  Next National Brownfields meeting not final, but Pittsburg is a top contender  The Technical Assistance to Brownfields (TAB) 5 year grant was re- competed this year.
