No Responsibility for Hazardous Materials Clause Samples

The "No Responsibility for Hazardous Materials" clause establishes that one party is not liable for the presence, handling, or consequences of hazardous materials on a property or in connection with a transaction. In practice, this means that if hazardous substances such as asbestos, chemicals, or other regulated materials are discovered, the party protected by this clause is not responsible for remediation, damages, or regulatory compliance related to those materials. This clause serves to allocate risk by clearly stating that the responsibility for hazardous materials lies elsewhere, thereby protecting the specified party from unforeseen environmental liabilities.
