Lender owned property https://www.epa.gov/brownfields/liab.htm Liability Issues EPA issued interim guidance clarifying some of the conditions that contiguous property owners ("CPOs"), bona fide prospective purchasers ("BFPPs"), or innocent landowners ("ILOs") must meet to qualify for the liability limitations provided in the Brownfields Law. In addition, the Agency issued guidance on the definition of eligible response site provided in the law and how EPA plans to implement its authorities to exclude particular sites from the definition of an eligible response site. Both guidance documents clarify how EPA intends to use its enforcement discretion in specific situations not to pursue certain potentially liable parties. Links to the EPA Website addresses containing these guidance documents are provided below. # Regional Determinations Regarding Which Sites are Not "Eligible Response Sites" under CERCLA Section 101(41)(C)(i), as Added by the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act (PDF) (11 pp, 384K) # Interim Enforcement Discretion Guidance Regarding Contiguous Property Owners (PDF) (11 pp, 88K) # Interim Guidance Regarding Criteria Landowners Must Meet in Order to Qualify for Bona Fide Prospective Purchaser, Contiguous Property Owner, or Innocent Landowner Limitations on CERCLA Liability (PDF) (22 pp, 366K) # Interim Guidance on the Municipal Solid Waste Exemption Under CERCLA § 107(p) (PDF) (32 pp, 1.3M) # Interim Enforcement Discretion Policy Concerning "Windfall Liens" Under Section 107(r) of CERCLA * Windfall Liens Interim Guidance Document (PDF) (32 pp, 1.2M) July 2003 * Windfall Liens Guidance: Frequently Asked Questions (PDF) (4 pp, 157K) July 2003 # Revitalizing Contaminated Sites: Addressing Liability Concerns (The Revitalization Handbook) # Brownfields Policy and Guidance documents from EPA Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance Policy Toward Owners of Property Containing Contaminated Aquifers EPA issued guidance outlining its policy of not suing property owners for groundwater contamination of an aquifer underlying the property if the owner did not cause or contribute to the contamination. Prospective Purchasers Agreements Guidance Bona Fide Prospective Purchasers and the New Amendments to CERCLA. EPA issued guidance that stated that EPA believes that, in most cases, the Brownfields Amendments make PPAs from the federal government unnecessary. The following discussion describes when, primarily because of significant public benefit, EPA will consider providing a prospective purchaser with a covenant not to sue now that the Brownfields Amendments are law. Guidance on Agreements with Prospective Purchasers of Contaminated Property EPA issued guidance outlining situations under which the Agency may enter into an agreement not to file a lawsuit against a purchaser of property that was contaminated prior to the purchase. Model Comfort Letter Clarifying NPL Listing, Uncontaminated Parcel Identifications, and CERCLA Liability Involving Transfers of Federally Owned Property EPA issued this model comfort letter clarifying common myths about NPL listing and CERCLA liability, and highlights certain provisions concerning the transfer of Federally owned properties. Policy on the Issuance of Comfort/Status Letters The "Policy on the Issuance of Comfort/Status Letters" is designed primarily to assist parties who seek to cleanup and reuse brownfields. EPA headquarters and regional offices often receive requests from parties for some level of "comfort" that if they purchase, develop, or operate on brownfield property, EPA will not pursue them for the costs to clean up any contamination resulting from the previous use.
