Separate grant selection from completion
EPA’s 2023 Mississippi announcement selected Vicksburg for a $960,485 Brownfields Cleanup Grant concerning US Rubber Reclaiming at 2000 Rubber Way. The announcement also described legal and administrative requirements before awards. It is not a completion certificate. EPA grant-selection announcement
For the 2000 address, the site profile lists a removal-only site and says it is not on the National Priorities List. Those administrative labels should be kept as labels, not translated into a statement that the land is safe for a particular use. EPA site profile
What a follow-up inquiry should request
If current status matters to a property or project decision, ask for the most recent site-specific cleanup report, agency determination and any applicable use restrictions. Include the exact identifier so the request is not routed to the other Rubber Way record.
Local Service Ledger compared the public identity and grant records, not soil samples or completed cleanup work. No inspection, current exposure assessment or property-use clearance is claimed.
Sources and method
Local Service Ledger checked the cited institutional records on September 7, 2026 and assembled the reader worksheet above. An address-and-record crosswalk distinguishes US Rubber Reclaiming at 2000 Rubber Way from Rouse Tire Fire at 1000 Rubber Way and separates grant selection from cleanup completion. No interview, site visit or individual service transaction was conducted.
