North Dakota Century Code Title 23.1. Environmental Quality § 23.1-10-13. Corrective action costs as lien--Filing of notice of lien--Contents--Attachment priority

All corrective action costs expended from the fund pursuant to this chapter constitute a lien on all property owned by the responsible party when a notice of lien is filed with the recorder in the county where the property is located. The notice of lien must contain a description of the property of the responsible party upon which the lien is made, a description of the property upon which corrective action or emergency remedial efforts were made, and a statement of the corrective action costs expended from the fund. Upon entry, the lien must attach to all real property of the responsible party. The lien has priority over all other claims or liens on the property, except those perfected before the department's filing of the notice of lien.
