KIN-BUC BROWNFIELDS TO
GREENFIELDS
PROJECT
Edison, New Jersey
In cooperation
with the US EPA, currently working on renewable energy solar PB.
Electric energy generated at the site would be made available to
Edison Township municipal buildings.
The
Clean Land Fund is the catalyst that has developed and is
implementing this Brownfields to Greenfields Project. This
Project began in the fall of 2003 when we approached the US
Department of Justice and US EPA with a solution to a very
complex legal problem that has been debated for many years.
In
essence we created what is called a Supplemental Environmental
Project or SEP in order to have the Township eventually own
these 100 acres under their Open Space Preservation Component of
Edison Master Plan adopted in 2003.
The "Kin-Buc Landfill
Brownfields to Greenfields Ecological Assessment and Restoration
Recommendations" was recently published. Dated June 2007,
it was prepared by the Center for
Urban Restoration Ecology in collaboration with CLF with
funding by CLF and Victoria Foundation. Click here to view
