The Brownfields and Land Revitalization Technology Support Center (BTSC, formerly the Brownfields Technology Support Center) provides technical support to federal, state, local, and tribal officials for questions related to the use of innovative technologies and strategies for site assessment and cleanup. Since beginning operations in the Fall of 1998, the BTSC has responded to more than 100 requests for support at brownfields sites and, more recently, Superfund sites. The types of services provided by the BTSC include:
Innovative technologies and strategies, such as the Triad approach, are used to streamline redevelopment by lowering costs and decreasing project time frames. The Triad approach is a systematic approach synthesizing practitioner experience, lessons learned, and technology advancement into a nextgeneration framework improving cost-effective management of contaminated sites.
The Center is a cooperative effort to provide technical support to federal, state, local, and tribal officials for matters related to the use of technologies for site assessment and cleanup. Partners in the BTSC include the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) and Office of Research and Development (ORD); the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; and Argonne National Laboratory. As a Center partner, EPA’s Brownfields Program helps to identify support needed by EPA’s Brownfields Program participants.
