Lenny, could you distribute this notice to your wonderful Brownfields listserv? The one-day workshop (with a very full agenda) is designed to provide knowledge, resources, and networking for the benefit of rural communities interested in learning how to successfully promote environmental redevelopment, public health protection, economic redevelopment, and job creation. The outreach is primarily to Florida stakeholders but there will also be a strong emphasis on federal programmatic opportunities – financial, technical, regulatory, and legal – that will likely resonate with, and be helpful to, rural communities throughout EPA Region 4.
