(a) In addition to the provisions of the foregoing subchapter I of this chapter, this subchapter is intended to implement a Brownfields Development Program, supplementing the powers and duties of the Secretary as set forth in § 9104 of this title. (b) The General Assembly recognizes that: (1) There are brownfield sites throughout the State; (2) The underutilization of brownfields in the State operates to the economic detriment of the citizens of the State, because the underutilization of these sites limits employment opportunities and needlessly uses valuable "greenfield" resources; and (3) There is a need to establish a program to effectively investigate, remediate, and redevelop these sites, thus returning these sites to more productive use and enhancing the economic well being of the citizens of the State.
