ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

[FRL–9944–23–OLEM] 

FY2016 Supplemental Funding for 

Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund 

(RLF) Grantees 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of the Availability of 

Funds. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) plans to make available 

approximately $8 million to provide 

supplemental funds to Revolving Loan 

Fund (RLF) capitalization grants 

previously awarded competitively 

under section 104(k)(3) of the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability 

Act (CERCLA). Brownfields Cleanup 

Revolving Loan Fund pilots awarded 

under section 104(d)(1) of CERCLA that 

have not transitioned to section 

104(k)(3) grants are not eligible to apply 

for these funds. EPA will consider 

awarding supplemental funding only to 

RLF grantees who have demonstrated an 

ability to deliver programmatic results 

by making at least one loan or subgrant. 

The award of these funds is based on 

the criteria described at CERCLA 

104(k)(4)(A)(ii). 

The Agency is now accepting requests 

for supplemental funding from RLF 

grantees. Requests for funding must be 

submitted to the appropriate EPA 

Regional Brownfields Coordinator 

(listed below) by April 25, 2016. 

Funding requests for hazardous 

substances and/or petroleum funding 

will be accepted. Specific information 

on submitting a request for RLF 

supplemental funding is described 

below and additional information may 

be obtained by contacting the EPA 

Regional Brownfields Coordinator. 

DATES: This action is effective March 25, 

2016. 

ADDRESSES: A request for supplemental 

funding must be in the form of a letter 

addressed to the appropriate Regional 

Brownfields Coordinator (see listing 

below) with a copy to Debi Morey, 

morey.debi@epa.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Debi 

Morey, U.S. EPA, (202) 566–2735 or the 

appropriate Brownfields Regional 

Coordinator. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Small Business Liability Relief 

and Brownfields Revitalization Act 

added section 104(k) to CERCLA to 

authorize federal financial assistance for 

brownfields revitalization, including 

grants for assessment, cleanup and job 

training. Section 104(k) includes a 

provision for EPA to, among other 

things, award grants to eligible entities 

to capitalize Revolving Loan Funds and 

to provide loans and subgrants for 

brownfields cleanup. Section 

104(k)(4)(A)(ii) authorizes EPA to make 

additional grant funds available to RLF 

grantees for any year after the year for 

which the initial grant is made 

(noncompetitive RLF supplemental 

funding) taking into consideration: 

(I) The number of sites and number of 

communities that are addressed by the 

revolving loan fund; 

(II) the demand for funding by eligible 

entities that have not previously 

received a grant under this subsection; 

(III) the demonstrated ability of the 

eligible entity to use the revolving loan 

fund to enhance remediation and 

provide funds on a continuing basis; 

and 

(IV) such other similar factors as the 

[Agency] considers appropriate to carry 

out this subsection. 

Eligibility 

In order to be considered for 

supplemental funding, grantees must 

demonstrate that they have expended 

existing funds and that they have a clear 

plan for quickly expending requested 

additional funds. Grantees must 

demonstrate that they have made at 

least one loan or subgrant prior to 

applying for this supplemental funding 

and have significantly depleted existing 

available funds. For FY2016, EPA 

defines ‘‘significantly depleted funds’’ 

as any grant where $400,000 or less 

remains uncommitted. Additionally, the 

RLF recipient must have demonstrated 

a need for supplemental funding based 

on, among other factors, the number of 

sites that will be addressed; 

demonstrated the ability to make loans 

and subgrants for cleanups that can be 

started and completed expeditiously 

(i.e., ‘‘shovel-ready’’ projects) and will 

lead to redevelopment; demonstrated 

the existence of additional leveraged 

funds to complete the project in a timely 

manner and move quickly from cleanup 

to redevelopment, including the use of 

tax incentives such as new market tax 

credits, direct funding or other 

resources to advance the project to 

completion; demonstrated the ability to 

administer and revolve the 

capitalization funding in the RLF grant; 

demonstrated an ability to use the RLF 

grant to address funding gaps for 

cleanup; and demonstrated that they 

have provided a community benefit 

from past and potential loan(s) and/or 

subgrant(s). Special consideration may 


asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
16174 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 58 / Friday, March 25, 2016 / Notices 

be given to those communities affected 

by plant closures or other economic 

disruptions; can demonstrate projects 

that have a clear prospect of aiding the 

in-sourcing of manufacturing capacity 

and keeping and/or adding jobs, or 

otherwise creating jobs, in the affected 

area; or will benefit a community that 

has been identified as part of EPA’s 

Cross Agency Strategy on Working to 

Make a Visible Difference in 

Communities. EPA encourages 

innovative approaches to maximizing 

revolving and leveraging with other 

funds, including use of grants funds as 

a loan loss guarantee, combining with 

other government or private sector 

lending resources. Applicants for 

supplemental funding must contact the 

appropriate Regional Brownfields 

Coordinator below to obtain information 

on the format for supplemental funding 

applications for their region. When 

requesting supplemental funding, 

applicants must specify whether they 

are seeking funding for sites 

contaminated by hazardous substances 

or petroleum. Applicants may request 

both types of funding.
