Section 22-30F-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter; establishment of revolving
loan program for voluntary remediation of environmentally contaminated areas. (a) The Legislature
finds that rural and urban property in Alabama may have areas of contamination which may be
addressed via the Alabama Land Recycling and Economic Redevelopment Act, Sections 22-30E-1
through 22-30E-13. The Legislature further finds that encouraging the voluntary remediation
and redevelopment of such properties is in the public interest. (b) The Legislature finds
that industries and developers often give preference to previously unused greenfield sites
over previously used property due largely to concerns over the financial and environmental
liabilities which may be incurred in acquiring such previously used property for reuse and
redevelopment. The Legislature further finds that the appropriate reuse and redevelopment
of properties which are contaminated, or perceived to be contaminated is in...

Section 22-30E-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter; establishment of voluntary
assessment and/or cleanup program for properties with potential environmental contamination.
(a) The Legislature finds that rural and urban property in Alabama may have areas of actual
or perceived contamination at levels that may not be subject to assessment or cleanup under
applicable laws and regulations. The Legislature finds that this perception of contamination
discourages the purchase and productive use of otherwise usable properties. The Legislature
further finds that the voluntary assessment and/or cleanup of such properties is in the public
interest. (b) The Legislature finds that industries and developers often give preference to
previously unused greenfield sites over previously used property due largely to concerns over
the financial and environmental liabilities which may be incurred in acquiring such previously
used property for reuse and redevelopment. The Legislature...

Section 22-35-4 Alabama Underground and Aboveground Storage Tank Trust Fund. There is hereby
created the Alabama Underground and Aboveground Storage Tank Trust Fund, hereinafter referred
to as the "fund," to be administered by the Secretary-Treasurer of the Retirement
Systems of Alabama. The fund shall be used by the department as a revolving fund for carrying
out the purposes of this chapter. The fund is not an insurance company and the laws relating

faith as such terms are used in general insurance law. Further, in no event shall combined
claims against the fund for payment of response actions and third-party claims exceed the
per occurrence indemnification limit set by the commission. Under no circumstances shall...
