This course is intended to foster an appreciation for the complex nature of environmental issues in the context of Brownfield sites. Topics will include historical conditions that have produced such sites, economic, and regulatory issues that complicate their re-use, technical challenges involved in their characterization and clean-up, and social factors that simultaneously make their rejuvenation difficult yet mandatory. Students will become familiar with the vernacular and ssues surrounding Brownfield sites in particular and environmental issues in general.
