Act 68, the Uniform Environmental
Covenants Act (UECA), was signed into law on December 18, 2007.
UECA was designed to standardize the process of creating, documenting
and enforcing activity and use limitations on contaminated sites.
According to the PADEP, "an environmental covenant will be required
whenever an engineering or institutional control is used to
demonstrate the attainment of an Act 2 remediation standard for
cleanup conducted under an applicable Pennsylvania environmental law"
UECA became
effective on all sites in Pennsylvania where a site specific standard
for remediation had been or will be attained on February 19, 2008.
