It typically outlines requirements for managing, protecting, or mitigating impacts on natural resources, such as air, water, soil, and wildlife, during the execution of work. For example, it may require compliance with environmental laws, proper disposal of hazardous materials, or restoration of disturbed areas. The core function of this clause is to ensure that all parties adhere to environmental regulations and best practices, thereby minimizing ecological harm and legal liability.
