Remediation Sites with Environmental Easements
In accordance with the requirements of New York State Environmental Conservation Law (ECL) Article 71, Title 36, certain sites are subject to the requirements of an environmental easement. To protect public health and the environment, environmental easements can be used to restrict the use of a property to specified categories (e.g., commercial, industrial) or to require the long-term operation, maintenance, and monitoring of engineering controls (e.g., a landfill cover system). Environmental easements are granted by title owners of the property to the Department of Environmental Conservation ("Department"), run with the land, and are enforceable in perpetuity. The property owners must periodically certify to the Department that the restrictions and requirements included in the easement remain in-place and effective. ECL Article 71, Title 36 also requires the Department to assist local governments in the review of their land use permits on lands that are subject to environmental easements. For associated procedures and a request form to be used by local governments, link to Procedures for Processing Building Permit Evaluation Requests. For questions on environmental easements, please contact the Department's Division of General Counsel at (518) 402-9521.
