Subject: Cal/EPA's new brownfields policy
 
>
>Adapted from the Cal/EPA OEHHA REA Program newsletter, March 1998
>
>Many California communities are burdened with abandoned or under-used
>properties that are contaminated or thought to be contaminated. These
>properties are commonly referred to as "brownfields."  DTSC has developed a
>number of ways to encourage the cleanup and redevelopment of "brownfields."
>The most recent method is the "Prospective Purchaser" policy and the
>"Prospective Purchaser" fact sheet.
>
>The purpose of the "Prospective Purchaser" policy is to remove or lesson the
>liability that purchasers of contaminated properties often face. This policy
>includes a model agreement with a "covenant not to sue," an application
>form, and eligibility criteria. The "Prospective Purchaser"  fact sheet
>highlights the major features of the new policy. Both of these documents, as
>well as other "brownfields" incentives, are available on DTSC's internet
>homepage: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/dtsc.htm.

>To find out more about Cal/EPA' DTSC's Prospective Policy, obtain a
>Prospective Purchaser Policy Agreement (PPA) application, or inquire about
