(a) Any certifying party who has submitted a Form III or Form IV to the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection pursuant to section 22a-134a prior to October 1, 2001, may comply, after providing notice to the transferor, transferee and, if different, the owner of the parcel, with the requirements to investigate and remediate under sections 22a-134a to 22a-134d, inclusive, instead of the requirements for investigation and remediation under sections 22a-134a to 22a-134d in effect at the time of the submittal of such Form III or Form IV.

(b) Any person who has submitted a Form I, Form II, Form III or Form IV to the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection pursuant to section 22a-134a may petition the commissioner to withdraw such form. Such petitioner shall notify the transferor, the transferee and the certifying party by certified mail. The petitioner shall make every reasonable effort to identify the address of such transferor, transferee and certifying party. The transferor, transferee and certifying party shall have thirty days to submit to the commissioner written objections to such petition. The commissioner may approve the petition if it demonstrates to the commissioner's satisfaction that the property or business was not an establishment or the transaction was not a transfer at the time the form was submitted. If the commissioner approves the petition, no further action is required by the certifying party with respect to its obligations under the form, but the form and the fee shall not be returned.
