DNR: Wisconsin Environmental Exemptions for Lenders and Representatives

To alleviate liability burdens that lenders and representatives may face at contaminated properties, and to promote economic redevelopment of these properties, Wisconsin’s Land Recycling Law of 1993 (Wisconsin Act 453) created lender and representative liability exemptions. These exemptions were expanded in 1997 in Wisconsin Act 27 and again in 1999 in Wisconsin Act 9.
