Brownfields Site Rehabilitation (Support)

SB 1152 (Broxson) would increase from $10 million to $12 million the total amount of tax credits that may be granted for certain site rehabilitations each year. The bill provides that potential brownfield sites owned by the state or a local government that are impacted by certain substances used in fire suppressants and firefighting foams (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances or “PFAS”) are eligible to participate in a brownfield site rehabilitation agreement regardless of whether such contamination was caused by or contributed by the state or local government after July 1997.
