An innocent purchaser, in real estate terms, is a party who acquired property without being aware of its contamination, providing they had a due environmental assessment before the purchase.
POTENTIALLY RESPONSIBLE PARTIES (PRP) are individuals or entities potentially liable for environmental contamination under Superfund laws such as CERCLA and SARA. These parties can include current or former owners, operators, transporters, and disposers of hazardous waste at a contaminated site.
