The purpose of this chapter is to provide rules governing
implementation of the Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund (BCRLF) authorized
by Act 173, SLH 2002. Other requirements of the BCRLF are contained in federal
regulations authorizing the program. The BCRLF is established under a Cooperative
Agreement between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Department
of Business, Economic Development & Tourism (DBEDT), the City & County of
Honolulu and the County of Maui to encourage clean up and redevelopment of
commercial and industrial properties that are idled, underutilized or abandoned as a result
of real or perceived contamination. To encourage clean up and reuse of these properties,
the BCRLF may offer low-cost loans to fund cleanup activities at properties that are
accepted into the Department of Health’s Voluntary Response Program (VRP). [Eff. ]
