1 CERCLA SECTION 104(K) ASSESSMENT COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WORK PLAN CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA BROWNFIELDS ASSESSMENT COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT Project Period: October 1, 2013 September 30, 2016 Submitted by: Contact Person: City of Dubuque 50 W. 13 th Street Dubuque, Iowa Phil Wagner, (563) , 1
2 1. Goal 3: Cleaning up Communities and Advancing Sustainable Development Objective 3.1: Promote Sustainable and Livable Communities PROGRAM RESULTS CODES: 301D79 Hazardous Substance ($200,000) 301D79XBP Petroleum ($200,000) CFDA: Assessment, Cleanup, and Revolving Loan Fund Grants OBJECTIVE: The Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act (SBLRBRA) was signed into law on January 11, The Act amends the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, by adding Section 104(k). Section 104(k) authorizes the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide funding to eligible entities to inventory, characterize, assess, conduct planning related to, remediate, or capitalize revolving loan funds for, eligible brownfield sites. Entities are selected from proposals prepared in accordance with the Proposal Guidelines for Brownfield Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup Grants, and submitted in a national competition. The City of Dubuque, as a general purpose unit of local government, was selected for Assessment funding in the FY 2013 competition. Dubuque seeks EPA Assessment funding to assess, clean up and redevelop brownfields in three distinct areas of its Downtown Urban Renewal District: The South Port, 33 acres of vacant and industrial waterfront property adjacent to downtown; The Historic Millwork District, an underutilized portion of downtown with over 1 million square feet of vacant, historic warehouse space; and The low-income Washington Neighborhood, where the City seeks to reclaim brownfields for housing and small business development. Brownfields in the three targeted areas pose a number of health, welfare and environmental risks. Dubuque s previous brownfields remediation activities on similar properties have revealed a mix of hazardous materials and petroleum contamination in the soil and groundwater. The City expects to find a similar mix of hazardous materials and petroleum contamination in the project s target areas, likely resulting in subsurface soil and groundwater pollution. EPA has designated some of these substances as priority pollutants. Residents most at risk would include those living in the low-income Washington Neighborhood; pregnant women and children would be particularly vulnerable. Studies by the National Cancer Institute show elevated rates of incidence for the Dubuque region (481.9 per 100,000 over the period of 2005 to 2009) as 2
3 compared to the state (481.1 per 100,000) and nation (465.0 per 100,000). Environmental contamination also poses a risk to aquatic life in the Mississippi River. Furthermore, brownfields have produced a negative psychological impact on Dubuque s residents. Many of these properties have cut people off from the Mississippi River, and have disconnected neighborhoods. Dark, lifeless streets have attracted crime, and for years new development has bypassed downtown for the suburbs. Residents and visitors entering Dubuque on U.S. 20 West are also greeted by the South Port brownfields, presenting a poor gateway to the city and state. Other environmental issues also disproportionately impact low-income populations in Dubuque. Dubuque s air quality is approaching EPA non-attainment levels. Fine particles (PM 2.5) represent the greatest concern for the region, measuring just under the acceptable standard. To accomplish the assessment, clean up, and redevelopment these brownfield sites, both site-specific and non-site-specific assessment activities will be conducted. Non-site-specific tasks included obtaining contractor services to provide technical assistance and oversight, conducting community engagement focus groups along with the establishment of a Community Engagement Team, and preparing community engagement materials pertinent to the projects. Site-specific tasks include performing assessments and preparing site specific technical sampling plans. Cleanup and reuse plans will be developed by qualified environmental professionals and economic reuse experts, with significant input from the Community Engagement Team. Cooperative agreement funding will be used to cover the costs of activities at or in direct support of brownfields sites as defined under CERCLA 101(39). The overall coordination of the cooperative agreement will be carried out by the Brownfields Coordinator, City of Engineering staff, other appropriate City staff and project managers, and with technical assistance and oversight to be performed by an environmental consultant. 2. FUNDING: Federal Funds $400,000 ($200,000 Petroleum and $200,000 Hazardous) The budget for this Assessment cooperative agreement is $400,000 for three years beginning October 1, This amount represents $200,000 in petroleum funding and $200,000 in hazardous funding.

For site-specific activities, actual costs incurred and the type of funding used shall be tracked by the project manager, who will serve as a liaison between EPA Region 7 and Dubuque, and will be responsible for assuring compliance with administrative, financial and reporting requirements and separate accounts will be established from the onset to ensure timely and accurate reimbursements are requested from the appropriate PRCs.
