Remediation & Redevelopment Program Success Stories

Since the 1980s, communities all across Wisconsin have investigated, cleaned up and redeveloped many of their contaminated properties. Local government officals, consultants, developers and other parties worked with staff from the DNR's Remediation and Redevelopment (RR) Program to ensure the proper cleanup and redevelopment at a number of these sites.

The chart below provides links to sucesss stories involving the RR Program.  Included is a list of assistance received for each site (e.g. funding, liability, exemptions, etc.). To learn more about each type of assistance, click on one of the headings in the blue column at the top of the chart. 

Please note that not all successful redevelopments are listed on this page. For more information about the cleanup and redevelopment of other properties, please contact the RR program staff in your region, or contact Andrew Savagian (608.261.6422).
