AK SB64

Adopts the Uniform Environmental Covenants Act to establish environmental covenants and notices of activity and use limitation for contaminated sites in Alaska.

Environmental covenants are required when remedial decisions result in residual contamination safe for some but not all uses, or when engineered features require monitoring and maintenance.

Environmental covenants must be recorded in all applicable recording districts and include specific information such as property description, activity/use limitations, all holders, and department commissioner signature.

Environmental covenants run with the land and are valid and enforceable even if they impose negative burdens, affirmative obligations, or lack traditional common law characteristics.

Establishes procedures for amending or terminating environmental covenants by consent or administrative action, and creates notices of activity and use limitation as an alternative mechanism when legal impediments prevent covenant entry.
