HB 1681 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies property disclosure requirements with respect to radioactive or hazardous material

This bill requires property owners, sellers, and landlords to inform buyers or tenants in writing if they know a property has been contaminated with radioactive or hazardous materials. Disclosure is only mandatory if the owner has received a written or electronic report from a government agency confirming the contamination. If a government agency requests permission to test a property for such hazards, the owner must also notify current or prospective occupants in writing. Additionally, the bill mandates that government agencies send written notice to residents within thirty days if they discover contamination on a residential property. Failure to make these required disclosures when knowledge exists could result in a class A misdemeanor charge for the property owner.
