The EPA awarded Stevensville a $733,250 grant to clean up and restore the former Anstey Foundry and support community engagement activities. Following the EPA grant notice, Congressman Tim Walberg (MI-05) visited the brownfield site in Stevensville and issued the following statement. "The Brownfields Program has delivered millions of dollars to Michigan communities to help with economic development projects," said Rep. Walberg. "After having ongoing discussions with EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin regarding priorities in Michigan, I am pleased to see the Trump administration make this targeted investment in Stevensville, which will make a difference for our environment and encourage local job growth, providing more opportunities for hardworking Michigan families." Background The Brownfields Program empowers states, communities, and other stakeholders to work together to prevent, assess, safely clean up, and sustainably reuse brownfields. Brownfield sites are properties whose expansion, redevelopment, or reuse may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. | 1 | 2026-07-03T08:00:00Z | 2026-07-03T08:01:30Z |
