To mark the 20th anniversary of Act 2, Pennsylvania’s landmark Land Recycling Program, DEP and the Engineers' Society of Western Pennsylvania are looking for Pennsylvania's best of the best brownfield projects to be recognized at the 2015 Pennsylvania  Brownfields Conference to be held May 13-15, 2015 at the Bayfront Convention Center, Erie.

Nominations are due January 31.

Signed into law in May 1995, this program has been successful in all areas of the Commonwealth, helping to restore environmentally-challenged properties back to useful life and economic prosperity.

Conference organizers are looking for nominations of unique or impactful projects that were completed as a result of Act 2. All types of brownfield projects are encouraged -- big or small, 20 years or six months old. If the project was important to your community, we would like to hear about it.

Submittals may be considered for verbal presentations, poster display or recognition at the conference. Be sure to submit your nominations soon, as we may feature your project on our Transformation Tuesday Twitter feed. 

The nomination form is available on ESWP's website.  For more information on the program, visit DEP’s Land Recycling webpage.
