Federal and state laws make property owners liable for environmental damage done by a tenant. That makes it imperative to verify that tenants comply with those laws. But a tenant may refuse to grant you access to inspect or perform environmental testing for that purpose. And without clear lease language ensuring such access, you could be literally and figuratively locked out in your quest for verification of environmental compliance, leaving you exposed to millions of dollars in potential liability.
