Pennsylvania will receive $14 million to clean abandoned sites with potential contaminants, politicians said Friday. Sens. Bob Casey and John Fetterman, the two Pennsylvania representatives in the U.S. Senate, announced the federal funding. The money will be distributed among 18 counties, townships, authorities and conservation groups across the state who applied to the EPA's brownfield program. Brownfields are abandoned or underused sites with potential contaminants, pollutants or other hazardous materials that make their development more expensive, like former steel mills or brick yards.
