Included in the state budget bill for state Fiscal Years 2024-2025, the state extended the Brownfield Remediation Program overseen by the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD). The purpose is to provide nearly $350 million in grant funding for the assessment and remediation of brownfield sites throughout Ohio.
