SITE ASSESSMENT AND REMEDIATION - CURRENT
State-subsidized Environmental Insurance Available in Massachusetts
Massachusetts has recently secured AAA-rated insurance coverage for cleanup cost overruns and
newly identified pre-existing environmental contamination at urban redevelopment sites. The
Massachusetts-sponsored insurance program provides pre-negotiated state-of-the-art coverage
subsidized by the state. Known as the Brownfields Redevelopment Access to Capital (BRAC) program,
this state initiative helps alleviate the financial risks faced by developers of delinquent
commercial/industrial properties that qualify as brownfields sites. BRAC also offers a lender
indemnification provision against loss due to an environmentally related default. For more
information, give us a call.
