Naked City

If elected president, Bush will recommend:

Directing the EPA to establish standards for brownfields cleanup that will provide more flexibility than current Superfund standards;

Protecting redevelopers from federal liability at brownfields under state programs that meet federal standards;

Focusing the efforts of the federal government on developing techniques and new technologies for cleanup;

Reforming the Brownfield Cleanup and Revolving Loan Program by cutting red tape and block-granting funds directly to states;

Permanently establishing the tax incentive for brownfield cleanup, currently set to expire at the end of 2001;

Directing all federal facilities to comply with environmental laws and be held accountable.
