Huntington will conduct Phase I and Phase II environmental site assessments at priority brownfield sites in targeted neighborhoods struggling with socio- economic challenges and blighted brownfields, and to forge remedial and revitalization plans to transform these sites and fulfill the Huntington Innovation Plan which guides the community. Despite being the second-poorest city in the fifth-poorest state in America, Huntington is underway with major economic diversification and community progress, first launched from our brownfield efforts. Huntington has targeted its revitalization efforts to its three most economically distressed and minority neighborhoods plus our downtown, and crafted reuse initiatives including the Huntington Brownfields Innovation Zone (H-BIZ), the Gateway Revitalization of the predominantly African-American, Fairfield neighborhood, the West Huntington Main Street Revitalization, and the Downtown-Marshall University Innovation District. Each of these is hindered by major brownfields which Huntington will address with this requested funding and leverage with public and private resources for productive new uses and job creation. Huntington is guided by its Plan2025 comprehensive land use and development plan which specifically identifies these brownfields as priorities for revitalization. Plan2025 was created with the Huntington Neighborhood Institute (including members the Fairfield Community Development Corporation, the Highlawn Alliance, the West Huntington Organization, and the Downtown Neighborhood Association). Huntingtons northstar mission is the Huntington Innovation Plan (HIP Plan), created in 2017 to tackle blight and brownfields, and guide revitalization in the struggling Fairfield, Highlawn, and West Huntington neighborhoods along with downtown. These specific target brownfield sites have been prioritized for revitalization by specific neighborhood plans which grew from the HIP Plan, including Fairfields 8 HUD Choice Neighborhood "Neighborhood Transformation Plan" (calling for expansion of the AD Lewis Community Center, and creation of a local grocery), the H-BIZ Brownfield Areawide Plan for Highlawn, and the 14West plan for West Huntington created with NEA Our Town backing. Project Team Structure and Responsibilities The same Mayor, team, and City staff who have effectively managed the successful 2015 EPA Brownfield Areawide Assessment, 2015 EPA Community-Wide Assessment, 2018 EPA Brownfields Cleanup RLF, 2020 EPA Brownfield Site-Specific Assessment for the ACF Industries site, and 2021 Supplemental RLF grant, will manage this requested FY23 EPA Brownfield Community-Wide Assessment grant. This same team has leveraged nearly $100 million in federal, state, philanthropic, local, and private sector funding into the brownfield revitalization projects spurred by EPA awards. Led by Huntington Director of Economic Development Cathy Burns and Deputy Director Lisa Riley, this team has also effectively managed ARC, EDA, HUD, and DOT grants associated with Huntingtons brownfield sites. Huntington is very pleased that its team have become brownfield experts, and we are excited about the thought of continuing the endeavor. Huntington has established staff positions to provide support to the core Department of Economic Development brownfields team on this grant, including City Manager Hank Dial, Chief Financial Officer Kathy Burks, Communications Director Bryan Chambers, Human Resources Director Sherry Lewis, Utility Director Brian Bracey, Stormwater Director Sherry Wilkins, Public Works Director Mark Bates, and a talented and effective Mayor Steve Williams. Huntingtons capacity is further bolstered by George Carico at the West Virginia Brownfields Assistance Center at Marshall University, Marshall University Vice President for Economic Development Bob Plymale, and Huntingtons Regional Economic Development Council Director Chris Chiles (a successful EPA brownfield grantee). An established and active Huntington Brownfields Task Force including experts in law, banking, finance, and community engagement backs the city team. Project manager Rebekkah Jackson (Grants manager) will lead all project teams and will be invested with the authority necessary to complete the project. She will serve as liaison between Huntington and EPA Region 3 OBLR, will manage all procured contractors and experts, and will be responsible for assuring compliance with the administrative and reporting requirements of the cooperative agreement. 2.0 SCOPE OF WORK (Project Task Descriptions) Task 1: Project Management and Reporting 9 A project manager will be responsible for assuring compliance with grant requirements. Tasks include oversight and performance reporting. Travel expenses of,$2,014 for travel and per diem, have been budgeted for two people to attend EPAs national brownfields conference in year one and $1,210 per year to attend the WV Brownfields Conference in years one through four to learn best practices and identify ways to leverage EPA resources. Lead Project management responsibilities will be conducted by Rebekkah Jackson with assistance from Director of Economic Development Cathy Burns (25+ years of experience, including as Huntington City Manager) and Assistant Director Lisa Riley (25+ years of experience). Huntington has a solid and consistent record of complying with U.S. EPA Brownfield grant requirements, including in the production and implementation of workplans, the timely filing of quarterly and final reports, diligent entries into the ACRES database, and completion of projects on-time and on-budget. This is the case for Huntingtons 2015 Community-Wide Assessment Grant, its 2018 RLF, and its 2020 Site Specific Assessment Grant. All were closed out, with no remaining funds. Huntington will track progress as it has done under EPA Brownfield grants for the past seven years. An established work plan, to be approved by EPA, will help to guide outputs and outcomes. The project manager will evaluate progress based upon milestones identified in the work plan. Internal software will be used to help ensure that assessment and reuse planning activities are moving along, and that project outputs and outcomes are being achieved. This will provide safeguards that grant funds are expended in a timely and efficient manner. Huntingtons environmental contractors will continue to regularly enter required data into ACRES. Task 2: Community Involvement Huntington fully intends to continue the robust community engagement and input process we have been using since EPA awarded Area-wide and Assessment grants in 2015. There is a standing, multi-stakeholder Brownfields Task Force which meets quarterly and as necessary to guide brownfield efforts. The Associate Planner will oversee and coordinate with the Huntington Neighborhood Institute and the specific neighborhood associations in the target brownfield neighborhoods on workshops, public polls, email and newsletter distributions, and public events to incorporate input. Public meetings may include expert speakers that will be chosen based on the issue(s) that are being addressed within that neighborhood. The speaker may be a member of our Brownfields Task Force or previous experts used in past Brownfields projects. Huntington holds monthly meetings of the HIP Huntington Task Force which focuses on revitalization in Fairfield, West Huntington, and Highlawn where this assessment grant is focused. Huntington will utilize our Communications Director and may contract with an online marketing company, such as Bulldog Media, for website and social media tools to spread the word about events, workshops, issues, challenges, and progress on the brownfield efforts. 10 Task 3: Site Inventory, Assessments and Site Specific Activities EPA resources will enable Huntington to conduct an estimated four Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) (note that many of our target sites already have completed Phase Is), five Phase II assessments, and up to 18 asbestos inspections in the blighted buildings downtown which will be part of the Huntington-Marshall Innovation District. Huntington will also use these resources for remedial planning and ABCA documentation by our environmental professionals at several key sites. In addition, Huntington will continue its well-known approach of robust revitalization and reuse planning (including site plans, market studies, infrastructure upgrade assessments, and resource roadmaps) at these sites, particularly the Flint Factory, the A.D. Lewis Center project, the Meadows School site, the Null Machine & Manufacturing complex, HADCO properties and in Gallaher Village. The project manager will assure that staff and contractor time will be dedicated to neighborhood and community outreach and engagement, and the support of the Huntington Brownfields Task Force. Huntington will ensure timely implementation of key activities by: Procuring Contractors: The project manager will hire environmental/planning contractors to conduct assessments and develop cleanup/reuse plans. These services will be solicited through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) process compliant with local, state and federal requirements including 2 CFR 200.317- 326 regulations. Site Access: The City project manager with environmental professional support will negotiate with landowners to secure access, although each and every target brownfield has willing landowner participants now. This permission will enable Huntington to access all property areas; conduct interviews, photographs, site sketches, and air monitoring; collect waste, soil, surface water, sediment, and groundwater samples; install groundwater monitoring wells, if necessary; and use equipment, including vehicles and drill rigs, to perform the above activities Site-Specific Activities Huntington will initiate and complete a planned four Phase I assessments. The City plans to conduct up to five Phase II assessments, and up to 18 asbestos inspections in the targeted areas. Huntington is also budgeting five remedial plans/ABCA documents. These activities will be conducted by qualified environmental professionals and preceded with approved Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPP). Lead Procured environmental contractors will ensure that all Phase I and Phase II activities meet ATSM standards and comply with the All Appropriate Inquiries Final Rule Task 4: Reuse Planning 11 Huntington will use expert brownfield community land use planners and market feasibility experts to conduct reuse and revitalization plans. Proposed activities include: site concept plans and renderings, market feasibility assessments, infrastructure upgrade assessments, and resource roadmaps for leveraging resources. Lead Huntington will procure a planning team familiar with market analysis, infrastructure needs, land use planning, and funding/financing options. Reuse plans include site plans for three sites; infrastructure upgrade assessment for two sites; resource roadmap for two site. 3.0 OUTPUTS / OUTCOMES The targeted brownfield revitalization efforts in this Assessment strategy will when completed: (a) create location for a grocery store in a food desert and expand the cherished but inadequate A.D. Lewis Community Center, in the most racially concentrated African-American neighborhood in the state; (b) boost commercial redevelopment of the Flint Factory property, the last brownfield to need cleanup and revitalization in the H-BIZ target area after Huntington has moved the ACF Industries, McGinnis Property, and Ingram Barge brownfield sites forward with past EPA grant awards; (c) facilitated the highly-anticipated Huntington/Marshall Innovation District mixed-use, knowledge-sector redevelopment of blighted buildings downtown; and (d) transform small but high-impact brownfields dragging on the West Huntington community at Null Machines, and in Gallaher Village at the long-vacant Village Cleaners and blighted gas station sites. None of these projects involve resident displacement or gentrification, and they are backed by grassroots neighborhood and resident organizations. Outcomes of each task are listed below. Outputs Task 1: Project Management Re-convening Brownfields Task Force and Neighborhood Institute/Associations, with at least four meetings over 4-year project period. 16 reports (4 reports/year x4 years); one closeout report; Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES) updates Task 2: Community Engagement Community engagement plan; meetings with neighborhood groups; & newsletters/fact sheets/web updates 12 Task 3: Site Assessments Four Phase I and five Phase II assessments; 18 asbestos inspections; one generic QAPP; & six site-specific QAPP addenda; five ABCAs Task 4: Reuse Planning Reuse site plans for three sites; infrastructure upgrade assessment for two sites; resource roadmap for two sites. 4.0 BUDGET: $500,000 5.0 QUALITY ASSURANCE Activities will be conducted by qualified environmental professionals and preceded with approved Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPP). Cost estimate $310,000. Lead Procured environmental contractors will ensure that all Phase I and Phase II activities meet ATSM standards and comply with the All Appropriate Inquiries Final Rule. Prior to undertaking activities involving the collection of environmental samples, the City of Huntington will prepare and submit a Quality Management Plan and either a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) and field sampling plan (FSP) combination or a Quality Assurance Program Plan (QAPrP) along with field sampling plan (FSP) for each property which meets the approval of the U.S. EPA Region III Brownfields Program. The QAPP/FSP or QAPrP with FSP for each site will describe the sampling and analytical strategies, methods and procedures approved by EPA that will be used in all sampling activities. The QAPP/QAPrP/FSP will be submitted at least 45 days prior to the initiation of field activities and approval will be obtained prior to performing any field sampling. 6.0 LEVERAGING Resources Needed for Site Reuse Huntington has been a national showcase community for leveraging resources into its brownfield transformations over the past decade, putting ARC POWER, EDA Economic Adjustment Assistance, EPA Environmental Workforce, EPA Cleanup & RLF, EPA Land Revitalization Technical Assistance, U.S. DOT, DOL WORC, NEA, Opportunity Zone, HUD Enterprise Community, HUD Choice Neighborhood, USDA Rural Development, and EDA Build Back Better Regional Challenge funding into these brownfields, along with 13 philanthropic funding from the Just Transition Fund, Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Benedum Foundation, and the Foundation for the Tri-State Community into action, along with major contributions from Mountain Health Network and Marshall University, leveraging substantial private sector investment. For the brownfields targeted by this Community-Wide Assessment application, Huntington will further leverage: Citys ARPA Recovery Act funding for Fairfield, Highlawn & West Huntington projects; Huntington Tax Increment Finance proceeds for Innovation District, and Flint Factory revitalization; U.S. DOT Reconnecting Communities and/or RAISE grants for the Hal Greer Boulevard infrastructure upgrades needed to support the Fairfield brownfield projects; Ongoing financial contribution from Marshall University and Mountain Health Network; $20 million expected for the Huntington-Marshall Innovation District and up to $12 million expected for the H-BIZ revitalization from the new, State of West Virginia, Economic Enhancement Grant fund created by the states share of ARPA Recovery Funds; and Primarily, private sector equity, debt, and other financial contributions for development at the Innovation District, Flint Factory, Meadows-Grocery Store site, the Null Machines site, and other brownfields with developers and finance already stacking. Each and all of these projects are located and focused on existing Huntington infrastructure in established neighborhoods. The Fairfield brownfields need a complete street upgrade of the central Hal Greer Boulevard corridor, but Huntington has already raised $18 million of the $24 million cost and is applying now for DOT RAISE and Reconnecting Communities grants, backed by the States DOT, for this upgrade. Major stormwater flooding infrastructure upgrades are needed in Highlawn, but it has now been funded by $7.5 million in city ARPA Recovery Funds, $6 million in congressionally-directed spending, and $1.8 million in EDA Build Back Better grant funding. No other infrastructure upgrades are needed to complete these brownfield revitalizations. 7.0 PHASE I SITE ASSESSMENT CHECKLIST For each Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, or all appropriate inquiry (AAI), conducted using EPA federal funds, the grantee must complete, sign, date, and submit the following checklist with each AAI/Phase I report submitted to EPA: https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-08/documents/aai-reporting-fact- sheet-and-checklist-062111-final.pdf https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-08/documents/aai-reporting-fact-sheet-and-checklist-062111-final.pdf https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-08/documents/aai-reporting-fact-sheet-and-checklist-062111-final.pdf 14 8.0 PRE-AWARD COSTS The City of Huntington has chosen not to incur pre-award costs. 15 TASK 1: Project Management and Reporting Activity (Commitment) Expected Timeframe (Quarter/ FY) Outputs (projected activities, deliverables, reports) Outcomes (projected results, effects, improvements) Actual Accomplishments this Quarter Qualified Contractors RFQ: Prepare Request For Proposals, evaluate applications, conduct interviews, hire qualified environmental consultant 1st & 2nd quarter/Yr. 1 RFP; documentation of meeting of open competition; and contract for scope of services High quality products and services to meet project needs Management & Reporting: Re-convening Brownfields Task Force and Neighborhood Institute/Associations Prepare progress reports, MBE/WBE and FFR forms Enter site data in ACRES Prepare final report and grant closeout material 4 quarters /Yr. 1- 4 At least four community meetings over 4-year project period; quarterly reports and other forms; updated ACRES database; final report and closeout forms Regular communication of project status and next steps; current database for reporting Training: Attend EPA Brownfields Conferences and other related workshops TBD Attend Brownfields conferences Improve brownfields knowledge and expand networking opportunities 16 ATTACHMENT 1: OUTPUTS / OUTCOMES TASK 2: Community Involvement Activity (Commitment) Expected Timeframe (Quarter/ FY) Outputs (projected activities, deliverables, reports) Outcomes (projected results, effects, improvements) Actual Accomplishments this Quarter Community Engagement Committee Meetings: There are two preexisting committees that will meet to guide brownfield efforts.
