Problems/Comments

Cook Inlet Housing sought DEC Brownfield Assessment (DBA) for the Spenard area in Midtown Anchorage to assist with redevelopment planning. The proposal was reviewed and approved for a DBA in FY 2014. The goal is to clarify environmental conditions in the area that could preclude economic development interests, and be proactive in addressing these activities.
