The Environmental Protection Agency awarded Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency a $1 million grant to pay for pollution cleanup in areas that include Cleveland, Lorain Middlefield, Chippewa Lake and Ashtabula Township.
It's been a bit of a rollercoaster ride for the future Chippewa Lake Park land over the 40-plus years since the old Chippewa Lake Amusement Park closed in 1978. Nature has reclaimed much of the park, including the kiddie rollercoaster. EPA is providing money to provide for its cleanup. WASHINGTON, D. C. -- The U.S.
U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown said that redeveloping formerly contaminated sites would be an “opportunity for new growth for communities across Ohio.” “EPA’s Brownfields grants are a great investment in Ohio’s future,” EPA Region 5 Administrator Debra Shore said in a statement. “One of the best ways we can build back better in Ohio is by revitalizing unused and contaminated properties and returning them to productive purposes in communities across the state.”
A statement from U.S. Rep. Shontel Brown said the money would be used to clean up contaminated sites, disproportionately located in Black neighborhoods, that are sources of blight and pollution.
