Spring Cleaning! Tips and Resources for Nebraska Communities to Revitalize Those Eyesore Properties!

The Nebraska Department of Water, Energy, and Environment (DEE), U.S. EPA - Region 7, and KSU TAB are partnering to present a webinar focused on:

• Understanding what brownfields are and how their redevelopment can kick-start community revitalization.
• Meeting your brownfield partners at NDEE, U.S. EPA, and KSU TAB and hear about free tools and resources they offer.
• Learning about upcoming in-person workshops that will build on the topics introduced in this webinar, facilitate networking, and help you form new partnerships with your peers.

Who Should Attend?

 Local government officials, key community stakeholders, economic and community development organizations, not-for-profit entities, community groups, private citizens, and others working to promote revitalization in Nebraska communities.

Schedule Your Free Community Visit

Do you have specific brownfields in your community you'd like to address? Are you interested in learning more about resources to do so and developing a “plan of attack”? DEE, KSU TAB and EPA are planning community visits between June 1 and June 12 this summer. If you'd like us to visit your community, please use this link to provide your contact information and preferred date of visit.

If you have questions regarding the community visit, please contact Taryn Horn, NDEE, at Taryn.Horn@nebraska.gov or (402) 471-6411.

Note: Depending on the amount of interest in this opportunity, we may not be able to visit every community submitting a response. In that case, we will schedule a second round of community visits this fall.
