Community Brownfield Projects

The Oregon Public Health Brownfields Initiative is working with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the "Let Us Build Cully Park!" (LUBCP!) coalition, in the Cully neighborhood, located in NE Portland, on a community driven process to assess the health impacts of redeveloping an old landfill site into a community park.
