Subchapter II. Uniform Environmental Covenants Act
§ 7910. Validity.

(a) An environmental covenant that complies with this subchapter runs with the land.
(b) An environmental covenant that is otherwise effective is valid and enforceable even if:

(1) It is not appurtenant to an interest in real property;
(2) It can be or has been assigned to a person other than the original holder;
(3) It is not of a character that has been recognized traditionally at common law;
(4) It imposes a negative burden;
(5) It imposes an affirmative obligation on any person having an interest in the real property or on the holder;
(6) The benefit or burden does not touch or concern real property;
(7) There is no privity of estate or contract;
(8) The holder dies, ceases to exist, resigns, or is replaced; or
(9) The persons identified as owner and holders in the environmental covenant are the same person.
(c) An instrument that creates activity and use limitations designed to protect human health or the environment and that was agreed to before July 21, 2005, is not invalid or unenforceable by reason of any of the limitations on enforcement of interests described in subsection (b) of this section or because it was identified as an easement, servitude, deed restriction, or other interest. This subchapter does not apply in any other respect to such an instrument.
(d) This subchapter does not invalidate or render unenforceable any interest, whether designated as an environmental covenant or other interest that is otherwise enforceable under the law of this state.
