VALIDITY; EFFECT ON OTHER INSTRUMENTS.
A.  An environmental covenant that complies with the Uniform
Environmental Covenants Act runs with the land.
B.  An environmental covenant that is otherwise effective is
valid and enforceable even if:
1.  It is not appurtenant to an interest in real property;
2.  It can be or has been assigned to a person other than the
original holder;
3.  It is not of a character that has been recognized
traditionally at common law;
4.  It imposes a negative burden;
5.  It imposes an affirmative obligation on a person having an
interest in real property or on the holder;
6.  The benefit or burden does not touch or concern real
property;
7.  There is no privity of estate or contract;
8.  The holder dies, ceases to exist, resigns, or is replaced;
or
9.  The owner of an interest subject to the environmental
covenant and the holder are the same person.
C.  An instrument that creates restrictions or obligations with
respect to real property that would qualify as activity and use
limitations except for the fact that the instrument was recorded
before January 1, 2007, is not invalid or unenforceable because of
any of the limitations on enforcement of interests described in
subsection B of this section or because it was identified as an
easement, servitude, deed restriction, or other interest.  The
Uniform Environmental Covenants Act does not apply in any other
respect to such an instrument.
D.  The Uniform Environmental Covenants Act does not invalidate
or render unenforceable any interest, whether designated as an
environmental covenant or other interest, that is otherwise
enforceable under the law of this state.
