4. The Project Coalition Lead and the Coalition Partners agree to check-in and/or
meet regularly in person, via phone, through email, at committee meetings, or
other methods. Frequency is anticipated to be higher in the beginning of the
project (twice a month during first 6 months) and monthly thereafter. Time,
format, and location will be jointly agreed upon.
5. Stantec consulting was retained through a competitive procurement process
consistent with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.317-326 to undertake activities
funded through the cooperative agreement. These activities include inventory
preparation, site selection criteria development, assessments, cleanup planning.
and outreach materials and implementation, and other eligible activities.
6. At a minimum, (and to the extent practicable), each Coalition Partner will have a
minimum of one Phase I and one Phase II performed at brownfields sites in their
jurisdiction. These sites will be submitted to EPA for approval. This minimum
will ensure that the EPA requirement of five sites will be successfully met.
7. Upon designation of the specific sites, it will be the responsibility of the coalition
partner in whose geographic area the site is located to work with Stantec and
RVCOG to prepare a scope of work. It will be the responsibility of this partner to
ensure all required permits, easements, and/or access agreements as may be
necessary to undertake assessments at the selected site are obtained.
8. The coalition will work together with Stantec to develop Site Prioritization
Criteria based on environmental, economic and land use factors. Scoring will be
established in order to choose remaining sites to successfully utilize the funding
within the three-year period of performance.
9. After the preliminary sites are chosen, the coalition will utilize the Site
Prioritization Criteria to prioritize additional sites to utilize the remaining funding.
10. Other activities, such as community outreach and involvement, will be mutually
agreed upon and a schedule established for implementation.
