EPA Announces 2019 Federal Facility Excellence in Site Reuse Awards

Contact Information: EPA Press Office ([email protected])

EPA Announces 2019 Federal Facility Excellence in Site Reuse Awards 

WASHINGTON — July 11, 2019 –  Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the winners of the second annual “National Federal Facility Excellence in Site Reuse” awards. These awards recognize the innovative thinking and cooperation among federal agencies, states, tribes, local partners, and developers that have led to noteworthy restoration and reuse of federal facility sites under the Superfund program.

“Expediting the cleanup and redevelopment of Superfund sites, including those owned by the federal government, is a top priority of the Trump Administration,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “These awards highlight the successes we have achieved through working cooperatively with our federal, state, and local partners to restore properties in a manner that protects public health and serves as a catalyst for economic growth and community revitalization.”

“The Denver Federal Center is a shining example of how a contaminated federal site can be transformed into a thriving and high-functioning federal property that hosts the largest concentration of federal workers outside of Washington D.C.,” said Regional Administrator Gregory Sopkin.

The Federal Facility Excellence in Site Reuse Awards cover four categories of federal facilities: (1) National Priorities List (NPL) sites, (2) NPL Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) sites, (3) non-NPL BRAC sites, and (4) non-NPL sites. This year’s award winners are:

NPL Award: Fernald Preserve, Ohio

The 1,050-acre former U.S. Department of Energy uranium processing facility is now home to an undeveloped park, encompassing 140 acres of wetlands, 350 acres of prairies, and 400 acres of forest. The preserve employs 33 full-time employees to meet its mission.

NPL BRAC Award: Former Naval Air Station Cecil Field, Florida

The 17,225-acre former Navy air station now hosts the Cecil Airport, which serves corporate aircraft, general aviation, air cargo, and National Guard and Reserve aviation operations, as well as the City of Jacksonville’s Cecil Commerce Center, which is home to more than 31 million square feet of commercial and industrial space. Cecil Airport and the Cecil Commerce Center have had significant impact on job creation and economic development in the Jacksonville area. Today, more than 6,225 people are employed at both Cecil Airport and facilities in the Cecil Commerce Center.

Non-NPL BRAC Award: Former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, South Carolina

The 3,936-acre former Air Force base is now home to Myrtle Beach International Airport; over 1,200 new homes; a dozen parks; walking paths and sporting facilities; a golf course; a college; a new technology and aerospace business park; and a centerpiece commercial district called The Market Common, which features various shops, and restaurants. This redevelopment project has had a large economic impact on Horry County by employing 25,781 people, and providing $2,972,700,000 in annual economic activity and $119,872,710 in annual tax revenue.

Non-NPL Award: Denver Federal Center, Colorado

The former 640-acre munitions site is now home to the Denver Federal Center, which hosts 27 federal agencies with over 6,250 employees, making it the largest concentration of federal workers outside of Washington DC. Other portions of the property include a light rail station, bus terminal, large hospital, and medical offices.

Background:

EPA has ongoing cleanup and property transfer responsibilities at 174 federal facility NPL sites across the country, which are some of the largest and most complex sites within the Superfund program. The Trump Administration has made the Superfund program a top priority to advance the agency’s core mission of protecting human health and the environment. EPA’s Superfund Task Force is working to promote redevelopment and reuse of sites by encouraging investment in reuse outcomes. The federal facility sites receiving resuse awards serve as examples of the types of site investment that can occur at sites owned by federal agencies.

EPA awards Utah Dept of Environmental Quality $959k to restore fisheries, improve water quality

EPA awards Utah Department of Environmental Quality $959k to restore fisheries, improve water quality and rehabilitate lakes

One project plans to return Pelican Lake to Blue Ribbon fishery status

DENVER (July 10, 2019) – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded $959,049 to the Utah Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ) to help protect human health and the environment through a Nonpoint Source Program Clean Water Act (Section 319) grant.  This grant is given to states to implement environmental programs that address various sources of pollution in surface and groundwater in order to meet and maintain water quality standards.

“EPA is partnering with UDEQ and other partners to restore the water quality and the Blue Ribbon fishery of Pelican Lake,” said EPA Regional Administrator Gregory Sopkin. “The water quality of our lakes and streams across the west is a high priority and by working together on these projects, our impact is greater.”

“This year we were able to award funds for multiple excellent projects to help reduce pollution from nonpoint sources in partnership with EPA and other funding agencies,” said Director of Utah’s Water Quality Division, Erica Gaddis. “The Pelican Lake project is a great example of partners working together to improve water quality.  All the partners have developed the plan and brought funding to the table, allowing us to implement this project on a much larger scale than any one of our agencies would have been able to on their own.  We hope that these types of partnerships can continue to be developed and utilized in other areas of the state.”  

Restoring the fishery is now a priority of Utah Department of Natural Resources’ Division of Wildlife Resources, the project lead, with the goal of returning Pelican Lake to the Blue Ribbon fishery status it once had. “We look forward to restoring Pelican Lake as a great fishing destination for Utahns and visitors from across the U.S. to enjoy,” said Director of Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, Mike Fowlks. “These partnerships and grants are so important in helping improve habitats so that wildlife can thrive.”  

The largest portion of the Utah grant, $426,000, will go to the Pelican Lake Rehabilitation Project which is located 20 miles southwest of Vernal in the Uinta Basin. Pelican Lake is a natural lake, and historically important recreational site, approximately 1700 acres in size, and was a nationally recognized fishery for bluegill and largemouth bass. However, in recent decades the water quality in the lake has become impaired due to elevated pH and phosphorus, and as a result, the fishery has also declined in catch rates and size of the fish. Being a shallow lake makes it very vulnerable to sediment loading from surrounding water bodies. A proliferation of invasive carp has also contributed to an increasing lack of clarity.  The total cost of the project will be about $1,448,000 and will take about 3 years to complete.

In addition to funding the “boots on the ground” local watershed coordinators in six basins around the state, the grant will also fund work that will stabilize the shoreline of Matt Warner Reservoir in order to reduce sediment and phosphorous loading. This will help address harmful algal blooms that have been blamed for the death of cattle in the past.  An information, education and outreach program through Utah State University will also be funded, which includes support of a Citizen Monitoring Program, Youth Outreach Program and Teacher Training Program.
