The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality announced that grants totaling more than $3.2 million have been awarded to 41 applicants for use toward the complete cleanup of scrap tire sites in order to reduce the potential public health and environmental concerns associated with them.
The funding is expected to clean up more than 3.1 million passenger tire equivalents.
The grantees will have until August 31, 2007, to complete contract requirements for having their tires removed and processed in accordance with a DEQ-approved tire removal plan.
