A: Brownfields are previously used or redeveloped land that may be contaminated with hazardous waste or pollution (-USGBC). The land has the potential to be reused once any hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants are remediated.

LEED credit can be earned for projects that remediate the site and build on it.
B: A greenfield is site that is undeveloped and in a natural state or has been used for agriculture.
C:The land of the brownfield has the potential to be reused once any hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants are remediated.

Remediation is the process of cleaning up the site and must occur prior to building.
D:Infill development occurs within established urban areas where the site or area either is a vacant place between other developments or has previously been used for another urban purpose.
