DPS (Downgradient Property Status)

[Kevin Mirise]

Has anyone purchased or sold a property with DPS (Downgradient Property Status) filed on it, because of environmental contamination from an upstream property? I'm in Massachusetts, if that makes a difference, but I'm wondering what are the requirements for a new owner to be able to file a modification to gain the protection of the DPS status? Do you have to hire an environmental engineer if the DPS is already in place, and the new owner is simply administratively adding their name to the DPS filing status? TIA
