The New Jersey Environmental Infrastructure Trust is another public funding source available for brownfield remediation and redevelopment if the end use will, in some way, improve water quality. The mission of the Environmental Infrastructure Trust is to provide and administer low interest rate loans to New Jersey's municipalities, counties, and regional authorities for the purpose of financing water quality infrastructure projects that improve the State's natural resources and protect the public health. Brownfield remediation projects are eligible for loans at one-quarter or one-half of the market rate. The Environmental Infrastructure Trust does permit the developer to participate in the loan process. Contact: 609-219-8600 or information@njib.gov
