Due to ongoing public health and safety concerns and based on current recommendations and policies at West Virginia University, the Northern WV Brownfields Assistance Center has shifted all staff to working remotely.
Our on-campus offices are closed, but we are still working on priority programs and projects. This may impact our availability and response time as we all work to re-schedule and re-prioritize meetings, events, and other obligations in accordance with recommendations related to social distancing and disease prevention from the Centers for Disease Control to help prevent the spread of disease.
Updates to our schedules and status will be posted to the WV Brownfields Facebook pages.
Please feel free to reach out to any of our staff via email, and we will work to respond to the best of our ability and appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate the current landscape.
We look forward to working closely with all of our communities and partners once the immediate public health concerns have been addressed.
Be well,
Patrick Kirby, Director
Northern WV Brownfields Assistance
