DEC Brownfield Assessment and Cleanup Projects
Brownfield Funded Projects in Alaska
Since 2003, the DEC Brownfields Program has worked with Alaska communities to identify their concerns about contaminated properties. The biggest obstacle to cleaning up and revitalizing contaminated sites is often funding. Our assessment and cleanup services can give communities a definite advantage when applying for federal and state grants and other assistance. This map highlights many of the brownfield projects supported by DEC across the State. Site summaries of these projects are included below in a sortable table.

DEC facilitates assessment
DEC Brownfield Assessments and Cleanups (DBACs) are available to public, quasi-public, and non-profit entities, such as city and borough governments, tribal councils, Native corporations, and community development organizations. A DBAC helps identify contamination at a property, evaluates how the contamination could be managed to facilitate future use, and provides an estimate of cleanup costs. DEC conducts between three and ten DBACs each year using either federal funding from EPA. Assessments provide additional data at sites where a lack of environmental information has thwarted redevelopment opportunities. (See more information about Brownfields.) Some highlights of our DBAC projects using our federal State & Tribal Response funding over the years are summarized below:
