The US EPA, The Northeast-Midwest Institute, and the University of Illinois at Chicago Great Lakes Center for Environmental Training (in cooperation with HUD) will be presenting a training course which covers the broad range of activities that local governments need to know in order to successfully identify, clean up, and redevelop Brownfields. The course will be offered in Chicago during the week of June 20, 2005, and in Kansas City during the week of August 1, 2005, and is open to all who may be interested. The course includes presentations by local governments and others who are experienced in Brownfield redevelopment, and hands-on case studies including site visits.
