Overview
The act governs environmental covenants — recorded interests in real property that impose activity and use limitations on a site in connection with an environmental response project, with an environmental agency and a designated holder as parties. It specifies what a covenant must contain, how it is recorded and how notice reaches affected parties, and how it relates to other interests in the land, to other recorded instruments, and to ordinary land-use regulation. It also addresses how long a covenant lasts, how it may be amended or terminated by consent of the required parties or by court action, and who may enforce it.
