“Brownfield property" means previously developed and currently abandoned or underutilized real property and adjacent surface waters and sediment where environmental, economic, or community reuse objectives are hindered by the release or threatened release of hazardous substances that Ecology has determined requires remedial action under this chapter or that the US EPA has determined requires remedial action under the federal cleanup law.

Public Funding Fit with Brownfields
If: Market value of redeveloped property far exceeds cost of cleanup.
Then: Private developer likely to pay for cleanup and redevelopment.
If: Cost of cleanup far exceeds market value of redeveloped property
Then: Difficult to redevelopment.
If: Redeveloped property value close to covering cleanup and development costs.
Then: Private market alone unlikely to undertake project; some public investment can make it viable.
