New Environmental Covenant & Easement Template
The MPCA has posted a new template for the Environmental Covenant and Easement (ECE) on its website. The template is a locked Word document that allows the user to enter text in specific areas and to choose applicable language from drop-down boxes. The rest of the template is locked and cannot be edited. Guidance and instructions have been included throughout the template.
The new ECE template can be found here Cleanup guidance | Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (state.mn.us) under the Institutional Controls accordion folder.
Effective immediately, draft ECEs submitted for MPCA review must use the new template. It’s easier and faster for everyone and results in a better-quality submittal. When drafting a new ECE, always start with the template on MPCA’s webpage. This will ensure that you are using the most up-to-date version. Don’t edit an ECE created for another property, as this invariably results in errors; the guidance/directions will be missing and text applicable to the new ECE may have been deleted from the one done previously. Draft ECEs received in outdated format or with errors based on ill-advised editing of a previous ECE will be returned to the author for a re-do.
If you have a question about the new template or find a glitch in the formatting, please contact Amy Hadiaris at amy.hadiaris@state.mn.us or 651-757-2404.
