Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund Underwriting Services CCRPC recently secured a $ 1 million FY25 Revolving Loan Fund ( RLF ) Grant from EPA under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act ( IIJA ), which will capitalize a permanent fund for the remediation and redevelopment of eligible brownfield sites within the region and neighboring regions . This mission - driven RLF will fund cleanup projects that benefit residents by reducing exposure to contaminants , create safe and affordable housing , generate job opportunities in newly created or retained commercial space , and / or create public open space . While all eligible projects will be considered , CCRPC will use its RLF to provide discounted and flexible loan terms ( in addition to grants ) to meet these goals , prioritizing projects that provide clear tangible public benefits and would not be possible without advantageous financing . CCRPC is issuing the attached Request for Proposals with the intent of selecting a qualified firm to provide loan underwriting and advice in financial product design for the RLF .
