Brownfields money headed to OKC
Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett will be joined at 1 p.m. July 30 by officials with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Oklahoma Office of the Secretary of Environment, Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality and the Oklahoma Corporation Commission to highlight the city’s recent Brownfields assessment grant of $350,000.
The funds will go toward environmental site assessments at the future MAPS 3 downtown public park site. For years, the land was the site of commercial and industrial businesses, auto repair shops, salvage yards, dry cleaners and battery manufacturers.
Previous Brownfields monies have been used for assessment and remediation of contamination at the Devon Energy site, the Skirvin Hilton Hotel, the Dell Center, Bricktown Fire Station, American Indian Cultural Center, First National Building and Dowell Center.
The event will be at Union Station at 300 S.W. Seventh.
