The Gardner Redevelopment Authority and the City of Gardner are undertaking a $1.8 million cleanup of a former metals facility as the groups continue to prepare the area for commercial investment.
The project will include remediation and restoration of soils at the former Garbose Metals Facility at 155 Mill St. The work will begin at the end of the month and extend through spring of next year, according to a release from the GRA. Once completed, the site will be “shovel ready,” according to the organization.
This phase of the ongoing project is being paid for in part with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Clean-Up and Revolving Loan Fund grants as well as MassDevelopment and MassWorks funds.
