Geologically Hazardous Areas Sample Clauses

The Geologically Hazardous Areas clause defines requirements and restrictions for land or property located in regions prone to geological risks such as landslides, earthquakes, or soil instability. It typically mandates that any development or construction in these areas must comply with specific safety standards, may require additional engineering assessments, and could limit certain types of activities to minimize risk. The core function of this clause is to protect property and human safety by ensuring that potential geological hazards are properly considered and mitigated during land use or development.
Geologically Hazardous Areas. Areas that, because of their susceptibility to erosion, sliding, earthquake, or other geological events, pose unacceptable risks to public health and safety and may not be suited for commercial, residential, or industrial development.

Geologically Hazardous Areas. The provisions of PCC Section 18E.080 (effective July 16, 2012) shall apply except as modified below. Due to site geologic conditions documented from extensive site-specific study, the 30 percent or steeper slope criterion for landslide hazard area determination in PCC 18E.80.shall be changed to 40 percent as it applies to the Project Site and requirements of the code.

Geologically Hazardous Areas. Based on published geologic maps, the site and surrounding vicinity consists of almost entirely of mass-wasting deposits resulting from significant landslide events. Geomorphic features noted at the project site during our preliminary research and confirmed during field reconnaissance are consistent with large scale slump-block landslides. The classic characteristics of landslides can be readily seen, including clearly identifiable head scarps, rotated slump blocks, and hummocky topography of the slide mass. It is believed that the landslide events occurred under notably different geologic and climactic conditions during the end of the Pleistocene Epoch. The noted slump-block failures and surrounding mass wasting deposits from older landslide events appear to be relatively stable under the modern day geologic and climate conditions. A full report has been completed as is found in Appendix F. We have also included a geotechnical memorandum dated December 19, 2019 along with a Site Features and Geologic Constraints map in response to comments received from Chelan County as part of the previous submittal of this project. Additional site-specific exploration and analyses will be performed as part of the development phases of this project and will comply with the requirements of CCC 11.86.

  • No Hazardous Materials (A) have been disposed of or otherwise released from any Real Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of any Environmental Laws; or (B) are present on, over, beneath, in or upon any Real Property or any portion thereof in quantities that would constitute a violation of any Environmental Laws. No prior use by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any Real Property has occurred that violates any Environmental Laws, which violation would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

  • Use of Hazardous Materials Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be used, stored, discharged, released or disposed of in the Premises or cause any Hazardous Materials to be used, stored, discharged, released or disposed of in, on, from, under or about, the Property, or any other land or improvements in the vicinity of the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may use and store in the Premises such types and quantities of Hazardous Materials as are normally used in connection with Tenant’s permitted use of the Premises and then only in strict accordance with all Applicable Laws, including all Environmental Laws. Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, Tenant shall provide Landlord a complete list of all Hazardous Materials (other than standard janitorial and office products) used or stored, and expected to be used or stored, by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents at the Premises during the term of the Prior Lease or during the Term of this Lease, which list shall include MSDS sheets for all such Hazardous Materials and shall identify the equipment and systems within the Premises affected by such Hazardous Materials in Tenant’s business operations (“Tenant’s Hazardous Materials Plan”). Throughout the Term on an annual basis and upon Landlord’s written request, Tenant shall continue to update Tenant’s Hazardous Materials Plan so that it remains current. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at its own expense, procure, maintain in effect and comply with all conditions of any and all permits, licenses, and other governmental and regulatory approvals required for Tenant’s use of Hazardous Materials at the Premises, including, without limitation, discharge of appropriately treated materials or wastes into or through any sanitary sewer serving the Premises. Tenant shall in all respects handle, treat, deal with and manage any and all Tenant’s Hazardous Materials in total conformity with all Environmental Laws and prudent industry practices regarding management of such Hazardous Materials.

  • Hazardous Substances The words "Hazardous Substances" mean materials that, because of their quantity, concentration or physical, chemical or infectious characteristics, may cause or pose a present or potential hazard to human health or the environment when improperly used, treated, stored, disposed of, generated, manufactured, transported or otherwise handled. The words "Hazardous Substances" are used in their very broadest sense and include without limitation any and all hazardous or toxic substances, materials or waste as defined by or listed under the Environmental Laws. The term "Hazardous Substances" also includes, without limitation, petroleum and petroleum by-products or any fraction thereof and asbestos.

  • Hazardous Substance The term “Hazardous Substance” shall mean any hazardous or toxic substances, materials or wastes, or pollutants or contaminants as defined, listed or regulated by any Environmental Law or by common law decision including, without limitation, chlorinated solvents; petroleum products or by products; asbestos; and polychlorinated biphenyl.

  • Hazardous Material Contractor shall not permit any Hazardous Material (as defined below) to be located, used, incorporated into the Work or brought onto the Job Site in connection with the Work unless (i) absolutely necessary because no alternative is available, (ii) the precise nature and quantity of the Hazardous Material is specified in writing to Owner, (iii) the prior written approval of Owner is obtained, and (iv) Contractor complies with all Laws and prudent business practices concerning the Hazardous Material required. If Contractor encounters any material it reasonably believes to be Hazardous Material, or becomes aware of any incident involving Hazardous Material at the Job Site, Contractor shall immediately stop the Work in the area so affected and shall immediately report the same to Owner. Contractor shall also immediately notify Owner of any notice Contractor receives concerning the presence or use of Hazardous Material at the Job Site. Contractor shall be liable for all on and off-site disposal or transport of Hazardous Material (and shall sign any manifest for the transport or storage of such Hazardous Material), and for any discharge, release, injury to any person, or injury or damage to any property resulting from use of Hazardous Material in the performance of the Work. Contractor shall, at its expense, cause the removal of the Hazardous Material and remedy any associated problems in accordance with applicable Laws and prudent business practices. "Hazardous Material" shall mean (1) any Hazardous Material as defined under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, or under any applicable state or local Laws, (2) any substance or matter that results in liability to any person or entity from discharge of or exposure to such substance or matter under any statutory or common law theory, (3) pesticides, asbestos, formaldehyde, polychlorinated biphenyl, solvents, petroleum and motor fuel hydrocarbon material, and (4) any other substance or matter that becomes subject to any federal, state or local agency order or requirement for removal, treatment or remedial action. To the extent permitted by Law, and without in any way limiting any other indemnity obligation under this Agreement, Contractor shall indemnify, defend (at Contractor's sole cost and with legal counsel acceptable to Owner) and hold Owner and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, representatives, shareholders, partners, affiliates, successors and assigns harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, costs or liabilities arising out of an incurred connection with removing or remediating any Hazardous Materials on or about the Job Site or transported on, to, from or about the Job Site by Contractor.
