The Brownfields Reauthorization Act of 2025 increases federal funding and support for cleaning up abandoned or underutilized industrial and commercial properties known as brownfields. The bill doubles the maximum grant for individual site remediation from $500,000 to $1,000,000 and increases annual federal funding from $200 million to $250 million per year for fiscal years 2026 through 2030. The legislation also expands state environmental programs to implement new cleanup initiatives in addition to enhancing existing ones. This bill affects state and local governments, developers, and environmental agencies working to restore contaminated sites for reuse. The increased resources aim to accelerate brownfield redevelopment projects across the country, helping revitalize communities and support economic development on previously polluted land.
