The Elizabeth River Project is spearheading a broad effort by community partners and public agencies to take voluntary action to address contamination in the offshore sediments at Money Point and to prevent re-contamination from uplands. The Elizabeth River Project's Money Point Revitalization Task Force is planning a model for the coexistence of thriving industries and environmental regeneration at the Chesapeake, VA bend in the river known as "Money Point." Spills during the 1960s caused some of the highest known levels of “PAH” contamination in the Chesapeake Bay but the $5 million in the trust fund will allow cleanup to begin, once properties along the shore are also addressed.

The eighteen-month planning process will identify community priorities for restoring and conserving green space, for reducing risks to human health as well as risks to the environment, recreation and economic prosperity, and for improving economic and ecological viability of Money Point through sustainable development practices.
