Section 22-35-1 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds
and declares that certain lands of Alabama constitute unique and delicately balanced resources;
that the protection of these resources is vital to the economy of this state; and that the
preservation of waters is a matter of the highest urgency and priority as these waters provide
a primary source of potable water in this state; that such use can only be served effectively
by maintaining the quality of waters in as close to a comparable previous condition as possible,

promotion of public and private interests. The Legislature further finds that where contamination
of soils or waters has occurred, remedial measures have often been delayed for long periods
while determinations as to liability and the extent of liability are made; that such delays
result in the continuation and intensification of the...

Section 22-35-8 Rehabilitation of contamination sites. (a) The Legislature finds that in order
to provide for the expeditious rehabilitation of contamination sites, voluntary rehabilitation
of contamination sites should be encouraged, provided that such rehabilitation is conducted

that these are not state contracts and are expressly exempt from any competitive bid laws.
(b) Nothing in this chapter shall be deemed to prohibit a person...
