The Northern WV Brownfields Assistance Center has two open positions. We’re excited to grow our team to better help communities across the state and region.

The NBAC provides technical assistance and support to communities across WV, and with our new EPA TAB grant, we’ll soon be expanding to the rest of EPA Region 3. These two positions will be critical parts of our already outstanding team.
