Grant Writing

     Since 1983, TechLaw has supported virtually all major environmental initiatives as an oversight provider on various environmental land reuse and recycling programs. We bring our clients extensive experience and knowledge of the federal, state, and local environmental regulatory and development agencies, as well as zoning issues and institutional controls. As a result of our comprehensive knowledge of environmental regulations, TechLaw can also assist in project scoping and interpretation of the often large amounts of scientific data associated with Brownfields site development. TechLaw personnel have specific training in Brownfields grant writing and understand the nuances of these grant applications, including the following:

  • Identifying the type of grant needed: Assessment, Rotating Loan Fund, and/or Cleanup
  • Determining the dollar amount needed
  • Planning and executing community notification
  • Securing letters from state environmental entities
  • Determining site eligibility and property ownership eligibility
  • Developing a comprehensive budget and budget narrative
  • Identifying the site selection process
  • Exploring the sustainability of Brownfields/redevelopment potential
  • Creating opportunities for collaboration and community involvement
  • Identifying methods for reducing threats to human health and the environment
  • Investigating additional funding sources
  • Providing grant management counseling and oversight
Projects
 
Former Shipyard Site
TechLaw is providing invaluable support at this high priority Brownfields site for the City of San Francisco. We have provided EPA with technical oversight of all activities related to identifying and characterizing site contamination; assessing risk to human health and the environment; remedial design; treatability; field sampling; quality assurance; and monitoring of all contaminated media to ensure no off-site migration of contamination.

TechLaw is a technical team participant and reviews documents prepared to support the implementation of land use controls after property transfer, and documents prepared to support the risk management process. We also provide field oversight of remediation including the collection of split samples and the preparation of field observation reports to describe remedial activities. TechLaw regularly attends meetings to provide technical support.
National Capital Revitalization Corporation – NCRC
TechLaw provided oversight for redevelopment activities taking place at a former gas station located in Washington, D.C. under a contract with the NCRC.

Our staff assisted with preparation of the scope of work and evaluation of contractor bids for the project, revised the Underground Storage Tank Removal and Test Pit Excavation Oversight Work Plan, and conducted on-site oversight of activities.
