Introduction & Background
The Tri County Council for Western Maryland is seeking a qualified environmental and/or planning consulting firm to provide assistance with:
(1) Development and submission of an application for an EPA Brownfields Assessment Coalition grant on behalf of Tri County Council for Western Maryland for environmental assessment, planning, and community engagement activities in the target areas of Washington, Allegany, and Garrett Counties in Maryland.
(2) Implementation of the environmental assessment, planning, and community engagement activities should the EPA Brownfields Assessment be awarded.

The U.S. EPA defines brownfields as "properties that contain or may contain a hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant, complicating efforts to expand, redevelop or reuse them." Tri County Council for Western Maryland is seeking funding from the U.S. EPA for assessment, community engagement, and planning activities on brownfields sites in areas identified as target areas and throughout its geographic service area. Tri County Council for Western Maryland will be the lead project manager of the intended grant award.
