What is hazmat cleanup?

Who pays for hazmat cleanup in Iowa?
The person or business that caused a release is often responsible, and owners usually carry the cost on their own property. After a vehicle accident, ask whether another party's insurer or a carrier is involved. In a rental, the lease and local law decide.
