Environmental Matters

The policy excludes liability for environmental violations unless a notice is recorded. Notices may include governmental notices of landfill or hazardous waste sites, notices of violation of law, or cleanup liens. Owners may be required to record environmental notices. Private cleanup liens or covenants or environmental indemnities may reflect specific current violations. If so, each should be excepted, even if it is released.
