过去的两年中,美国环境保护署(EPA)完成了一项新的棕地倡议,这项倡议于1995年首次提出。由于在国内有许多被污染的地方,以位于原先城市区域的受污染的地方最为典型,所以“棕地”(brownfield)是一个含义覆盖面很广的词。EPA将这个术语正式定义为“被遗弃的、闲置的或未被充分利用的工业和商业设施,而这些设施若要扩大规模或再开发就会因为实际的或可感知到的环境污染而变得复杂化”。全国有400000至650000块这样的地方。典型的棕地并不是“超级基金”污染场址,而是其他类型的资产——这些资产,与需要在“超级基金”的支持下进行修复的资产相比较而言,所面临的严重污染问题比较少。

In the past two years, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has completed a new brownfield initiative, first proposed in 1995. Since there are so many polluted places in the country that are most typical of polluted places in the original urban areas, “brownfield” is a very broad term. The EPA formally defines this term as “abandoned, idle or underutilized industrial and commercial facilities that, if scaled up or redeveloped, will change due to actual or perceived environmental pollution Complicated. ” There are 400,000 to 650,000 such places in the country. The typical brownfield is not the “superfund” site, but other types of assets - those assets that face the assets that need to be fixed with the support of the “superfund” The problem of serious pollution is relatively small.
