Existing Hazardous Materials Sample Clauses
The 'Existing Hazardous Materials' clause defines the responsibilities and procedures related to hazardous substances already present on a property before a transaction or project begins. It typically outlines which party is responsible for identifying, disclosing, and, if necessary, remediating such materials, such as asbestos, lead paint, or chemical contaminants. This clause ensures that both parties are aware of potential environmental risks and liabilities, thereby allocating responsibility and reducing the likelihood of disputes or unexpected costs related to pre-existing hazardous conditions.
