The Contaminated Land Rehabilitation Program (Revi-Sols)
The Revi-Sols program was initiated by the Québec government in 1998. The Ville de Montréal administers the program on its territory on behalf of Québec’s Ministère de l’Environnement.
From 1998 to 2003, Revi-Sols funded 132 projects in Montréal. A total of 60 million dollars in subsidies were used to rehabilitate 206 hectares of contaminated land. The affected real estate projects had a total value of approximately 1.9 billion dollars and included the construction of 5,600 housing units. The program has been extended to March 2005, with the injection of an additional 15 million dollars.
