Join Grow America and ICMA ahead of the National Brownfields Training Conference for a deep dive into EPA Brownfields Revolving Loan Funds.

This morning half-day session will convene current and prospective EPA Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund grantees and operators for a discussion about lessons learned, best practices, and strategies to increase economic and environmental impact.
