Property Transfer Program
The Property Transfer Program requires the disclosure of environmental conditions when certain real properties and/or businesses ("establishments") are transferred. When an establishment is transferred, one of four Property Transfer Forms must be executed and a copy of the form must be filed with the department. When transferring an establishment where there has been a release of a hazardous waste or a hazardous substance, the party signing the Property Transfer Form certification agrees to investigate the parcel and remediate pollution caused by any release of a hazardous waste or hazardous substance from the establishment.
