Washington State has a cooperative approach to brownfields cleanup and redevelopment. Technical assistance, grants and a revolving loan program are available through state agencies and private consultants. The Department of Ecology manages cleanups under the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) and administers cleanup grants. The Department of Commerce (Commerce) manages the Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund and provides technical assistance to parties interested in redeveloping. Commerce also provides other revitalization grants and loans Ecology and Commerce work closely with EPA Region 10 brownfields staff and routinely collaborate on strategies to assist communities. Brownfields Coalition: Technical assistance in submitting applications for a revolving fund loan or coordinating site assessments is done in partnership with King County/City of Seattle, City of Tacoma, and the City of Spokane.
