Cal. Civ. Code § 410-38-5-10
Third party validation
Operative Text
Sec. 10. Nothing in this article may be construed to prohibit independent third party validation of any records and analytical data relevant to the contaminated property.
Section 410-38-5-10 of Indiana's 410 IAC 38 clarifies that nothing in the article prevents an independent third party from reviewing or validating records and analytical data related to a contaminated property. The rule functions as a permissive carve-out, ensuring that outside review of environmental data remains an available option. It does not mandate such validation, but explicitly preserves the right to pursue it.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under 410 IAC 38 § 410-38-5-10, property owners managing a contaminated site are not restricted from engaging an independent third party to review their environmental records and analytical data. Compliant operators often maintain thorough documentation precisely because it can be subject to outside scrutiny at any time. Keeping organized, accurate records of all site assessments and remediation data supports readiness for any such third-party review.
