Episode Details

Vermont is set to transform neglected, contaminated sites into thriving community assets with over $5 million in federal funding—unlocking economic growth, creating jobs, and breathing new life into neighborhoods across St. Johnsbury, Middlebury, Bennington, Montpelier, and Barre. The largest share, nearly $4 million, targets the True Temper Factory in St. Johnsbury, while other grants support environmental assessments and future redevelopment plans. This national initiative, active since 1995, has already spurred billions in private investment and hundreds of thousands of jobs, proving that cleaning up “brownfields” isn’t just about environmental health—it’s a powerful engine for local prosperity.
