Come join us! DNREC’s Division of Waste and Hazardous Substances (WHS) is hosting the first Delaware Brownfield Conference in 20 years on Thursday, August 20, 2026, starting at 9:00 a.m. at the Chase Center on the Riverfront in Wilmington, Delaware.

Connect with experts, explore funding resources, and discover innovative solutions for addressing vacant and dilapidated properties in West Virginia.

Join Mid-Atlantic TAB for loosely-structured office hours to help get ready for the FY27 EPA Brownfield grant competition this fall. Each session has a starting topic that will be covered by staff, but all questions are welcome at any time! Once you register, you will receive an email with the Zoom link. The same link will be used for all sessions in 2026.

This webinar is for people and organizations new to real estate development or seriously considering it for the first time. That includes small municipalities, nonprofits, faith-based organizations with underutilized property, and individuals or small business owners who see a local opportunity and want to understand what it would actually take. 

Join communities and stakeholders for the premier redevelopment event in Virginia. This annual conference is the best way to simultaneously learn about brownfields, get updates on relevant funding opportunities, find reuse inspiration, and engage with other members of the Virginia brownfields network.

Your actual backyard probably isn't a brownfield, but chances are there is one nearby. How do you identify where they might be? What do you do once you know there's some in your town? Join TAB to learn more about how to dive into your brownfields journey with a Brownfields Inventory. Hear how an inventory can help you get ready for redevelopment, tools to map your sites, and how TAB can help.

Participants of this live webinar are eligible for 1.5 AICP CM credits.

This interactive workshop will provide information on preparing early for the next round of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Brownfields Grants. At this training, representatives from Mid-Atlantic TAB, PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and EPA will be available to answer questions on the application, assessment, and cleanup process; getting your AAI in order now; the power of a debrief; and tips on building a compelling story that will lead to a successful redevelopment project.

Vacant. Dilapidated. Abandoned. Derelict. Eyesore. Blight. These types of properties are in every community, sometimes for decades. It may seem impossible to fix up brownfield sites, but that is a myth. Take the “can’t” out of “vacant" because rehabilitation is possible! And with help from EPA’s Technical Assistance to Brownfields (TAB) provider, redevelopment is easier than ever. 

Brownfield projects can take a long time and run into multiple barriers – not just questions of environmental contamination. For project champions and community leaders, it can feel like they are working alone, without much support, or like no one else has ever encountered the same issues before. Bring Your Own Brownfield (BYOB) is designed to connect project champions with experts in the field as well as peer project leaders to discuss their projects, identify potential resources or next steps, and build community across geographies.
