Pursuant to the Hazardous Substance Cleanup Act (HSCA), 7 Del. C. Chapter 91, §9126, the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) is required to issue a public notice within twenty days after entering into negotiations for a Brownfields Development Agreement (BDA). A BDA is an agreement between DNREC and a Brownfields developer with respect to a Certified Brownfield Site that sets forth a scope of work and schedule of remedial activities during the development of the Site.

DNREC’s Site Investigation and Restoration Section (DNREC-SIRS) is negotiating a BDA with the Wilmington Neighborhood Conservancy Land Bank regarding the 12 and 14 Gordon Street Site (Site), located at 12 and 14 Gordon Street in Wilmington, Delaware. Identified by New Castle County as tax parcel numbers 26-022.30-367 and 26-022.30-366 the Site may have had a release of hazardous substances as a result of historical activities on site.
