A brownfield site is a parcel of land previously used for industrial or commercial purposes that may be contaminated by hazardous substances, pollutants, or waste. These sites are often underutilized or abandoned and require environmental remediation before they can be redeveloped or repurposed. Reclaiming brownfield sites is a key component of urban development.

Definition

Land Use Zoning

Land use zoning is a strategy where governments designate specific areas for certain activities and functions based on risk assessments, as well as on the analysis of local communities needs and overall development strategy.
