## Resource

The EPA’s latest Brownfields Grant round missed Beatrice’s Dempsters site — a long-suffering, fire-ravaged hotspot with decades of contamination — despite a $1.5M request. Meanwhile, Chicago scoops up over $2M for its own cleanup, as cities scramble for funding to seal environmental hazards and make communities safer.
