A report issued on June 7 by Environmental Advocates of New York says that tax credits issued under the state’s brownfields program have failed to provide areas most in need of development with relief. According to the report, the program, over ten years, has cleaned up 114 brownfields sites, fewer than most other states, and that tax credits provided by the program between 2006 and 2011, totaling $1 billion, were not targeted to areas most in need of clean up.
