Sacramento lands grant to clean up old PG&E site

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has awarded the city of Sacramento $200,000 to clean up and revitalize the Jibboom Street Power Station in preparation for future development, Rep. Doris Matsui, a Sacramento Democrat, announced Thursday.

Efforts are being made to raise $50 million to build a new Discovery Museum Science and Space Center in the old Pcific Gas & Electric Co. powerhouse there along the Sacramento River.

The award is a part of a $2.6 million package that was awarded to communities across Northern California through the EPA’s Brownfields Program. The program encourages redevelopment of an estimated 450,000 abandoned and contaminated waste sites.
