Sec 49-1056. Lien rights; unrecovered corrective action costs

If the department or this state incurs unrecovered corrective action costs from a corrective action undertaken on behalf of a volunteer, a property owner, a person other than the underground storage tank owner or an owner or operator that did not have the required financial responsibility mechanism at the time the release is discovered or the claim is filed, the department has a lien on the property for the unrecovered corrective action costs, or, by agreement with the responsible party, may obtain a lien on any other property or other financial responsibility mechanism of the responsible party.
