Frequently asked questions

Why can't I use a generic equipment lease for my mineral processing plant?

Generic leases miss industry-specific issues like dust control, noise, and environmental permits. This draft includes clauses that address OSHA and EPA compliance, which are critical for nonmetallic mineral operations.

Who should be responsible for maintenance?

It depends on the equipment and lease terms. For heavy machinery like crushers, lessees often handle routine maintenance, while lessors cover major repairs. This agreement lets you clearly allocate those duties.

Does this agreement cover environmental regulations?

Yes, the draft includes a compliance clause requiring the lessee to follow all applicable environmental laws, including dust and emissions regulations. You can also add specific permit requirements in the special terms.
