Cleanup Grants provide funding to carry out cleanup activities at brownfield sites owned by the applicant. • An applicant may only submit ONE Cleanup Grant application in the FY22 competition cycle. • Applicants may request up to $500,000 to clean up one brownfield site or to allocate up to $500,000 among multiple sites. • Applicants that plan to only address one brownfield site in their application may request a waiver of the $500,000 limit and request up to $650,000 based on the anticipated level of contamination, size, and other considerations outlined in Section III.B.15. Applicants requesting a waiver must attach a justification for the waiver request, up to two pages. EPA will consider requests on a case-by-case basis and intends to approve such requests on an extremely limited basis.
