Redding, Connecticut, is receiving a $1.9 million federal grant to clean up a contaminated former industrial site that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont has released a $3 million state grant to help clean up a former industrial site in the town of Fairfield. It would allow a private developer to build a transit-oriented, mixed-use property that would include 240 housing units.

Connecticut’s industrial areas are filled with polluted and abandoned sites and buildings, which pose an environmental and physical threat.

Officials say a $23 million commitment from the Biden administration’s bipartisan infrastructure law will help complete the cleanup of Connecticut’s worst hazardous waste superfund site. The EPA’s cleanup of the Raymark Industries site in Stratford began in 1995.
