City of McComb Brownfield Request for Proposals

The City of McComb (City), is soliciting written Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from professional environment consulting firms interested in contracting with the City to perform grant management activities, environmental assessments, and related activities associated with the recently EPA-awarded Brownfields Community-Wide Assessment Grant. This is Federal Brownfields funding and will require adherence to the conditions required for its use. The firm selected will be eligible to negotiate a contract with the City. No minimum order or work is guaranteed. If the selected firm is unsuccessful in negotiating a contract or does not maintain the minimum requirements, the City, at its discretion, may select the next ranked firm for contract negotiations. All work will be ordered on an “as-needed” basis. A copy of the SOQ evaluation form, which shall be used by the SOQ review committee, may be obtained by contacting Quordiniah Lockley, City Administrator at (601) 684-4000 x 232 or via email at qnl@mccomb-ms.gov.

Brownfield Grants Overview from EPA

This ARCHIVED webinar presents an overview of the EPA's Brownfield Assessment, Cleanup and Revolving Loan program. Grant guidelines for FY13 are expected to be published at the end of summer so taking time now to learn about the program will be especially useful to new applicants. The presenters will go over: basics of the brownfield program; the three types of grants; who is eligible to apply; and what projects the grants cover. This webinar is meant as a primer for the subsequent webinars we'll be hosting in August where we go into much more details for each of the three grants. Those webinars will be held on Aug. 16 - Assessments, Aug. 23 - Cleanup, and Aug. 30 - Revolving Loan Fund.
