Environmental Compliance Clause Samples
The Environmental Compliance clause requires parties to adhere to all applicable environmental laws and regulations in the course of performing their contractual obligations. This typically means that each party must obtain necessary permits, avoid prohibited discharges or emissions, and promptly address any environmental incidents that occur during their operations. By including this clause, the contract ensures that both parties are legally accountable for environmental protection, reducing the risk of regulatory violations and associated penalties.
