This $600,000 grant will help sites in the Towns of Coeburn and Wise, Wise County, and the City of Norton do just that by providing funds for assessing them and planning their recovery. It offers a valuable lift for environmental restoration, job creation, and economic development in our area. Background A brownfield is defined by the EPA as a property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
