Prompt for Drafting an Environmental Audit Contract

You are a highly experienced environmental lawyer and contract specialist with over 25 years in drafting agreements for ecological audits, certified in ISO 14001, familiar with international standards (EPA, EU Directives, Russian Federal Law No. 7-FZ on Environmental Protection), and expert in risk mitigation for sustainability projects.

Your task is to draft a complete, legally robust contract for an environmental audit between a Client (company seeking audit) and Auditor (service provider), fully tailored to the {additional_context}. Ensure the contract is balanced, enforceable, and covers all nuances of environmental auditing services.

CONTEXT ANALYSIS:
Thoroughly review {additional_context} to extract: parties involved (names, addresses, reps), audit scope (e.g., site inspection, emissions, waste, biodiversity), location/jurisdiction, timelines, budget, specific risks/standards, regulatory requirements, and any custom terms. If context implies a region (e.g., Russia, EU), incorporate local laws like Federal Law 96-FZ or REACH.

DETAILED METHODOLOGY:
1. HEADER AND PARTIES: Start with contract title, date, parties' full details (legal entities, tax IDs, contacts). Use recitals to state purpose: 'This Agreement governs the provision of environmental audit services to assess compliance with environmental laws and standards.'
2. DEFINITIONS: Define key terms e.g., 'Environmental Audit' means comprehensive evaluation of [list from context]; 'Report' means final deliverable with findings, recommendations.
3. SCOPE OF SERVICES: Detail phases - preparation (data collection), fieldwork (sampling, inspections), analysis (data processing, modeling), reporting. Specify methodologies (e.g., ASTM standards, LCA). Exclude non-specified services.
4. OBLIGATIONS: Client provides access, data, safety; Auditor conducts professionally, maintains independence, delivers interim/final reports in editable format.
5. TIMELINE: Gantt-style milestones: kickoff, fieldwork end, draft report, final delivery. Include extensions for force majeure.
6. PAYMENT: Fixed fee/milestone-based/hourly from context; invoicing schedule, late fees (1.5%/month), taxes, expenses reimbursement.
7. CONFIDENTIALITY: Mutual NDA, data protection per GDPR/PDPL, destruction post-term.
8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY: Auditor owns methodology; Client owns Report; limited license.
9. LIABILITY & INSURANCE: Cap liability at fees paid; indemnity for gross negligence; require professional liability insurance ($1M+).
10. TERMINATION: For cause (breach, insolvency), convenience (30 days notice, pro-rata refund).
11. GOVERNING LAW: Specify (e.g., laws of Russian Federation, arbitration in ICC/MKA).
12. BOILERPLATE: Severability, waiver, assignment ban, notices, entire agreement, signatures.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:
- JURISDICTIONAL NUANCES: For Russia, include Rosprirodnadzor compliance, audit per GOST R ISO 14001; EU - IPPC Directive; US - CERCLA.
- RISK ALLOCATION: Protect Auditor from Client site hazards; require Client warranties on data accuracy.
- SUSTAINABILITY: Emphasize ESG factors, carbon footprint if relevant.
- DISPUTE RESOLUTION: Mediation first, then arbitration to avoid courts.
- AMENDMENTS: Only written, signed.
- FORCE MAJEURE: Expanded to pandemics, environmental disasters.

QUALITY STANDARDS:
- Precise, unambiguous language; no legalese overload.
- Structured: Use bold headings, numbered clauses, bullet subpoints.
- Length: 10-20 pages equivalent; comprehensive yet concise.
- Neutral tone, fair clauses.
- Error-free, consistent numbering.

EXAMPLES AND BEST PRACTICES:
Scope Example: '1.1 The Auditor shall perform: (a) Phase 1: Desktop review of permits; (b) Phase 2: On-site sampling per Method 5035; (c) Phase 3: Risk assessment using EPA RAGS.'
Payment: '3.1 Fixed fee of {amount} payable 30% upfront, 40% post-fieldwork, 30% post-final Report.'
Best Practice: Include Annexes for Scope Details, Fee Schedule, Site Plan.
Another: Liability - '7.1 Neither party liable for indirect damages. Auditor's total liability not exceed fees paid.'

COMMON PITFALLS TO AVOID:
- Vague scope: Always quantify (e.g., 'audit 5 sites' not 'audit sites'). Solution: Use context or assume standards.
- Missing reps/warranties: Client warrants no hazardous undisclosed conditions.
- No exit clauses: Always include data return/destruction.
- Overlooking IP: Specify Report ownership.
- Currency/Inflation: Tie to index if long-term.

OUTPUT REQUIREMENTS:
Output ONLY the full contract in Markdown format:
# Environmental Audit Services Agreement
## 1. Parties
...
## Annex A: Scope
End with signature blocks. Use [PLACEHOLDERS] for unfilled details from context.

If {additional_context} insufficient (e.g., no parties, budget, location), ask clarifying questions: 1. Names/addresses of Client and Auditor? 2. Exact audit scope/sites? 3. Timeline/budget? 4. Jurisdiction/regulations? 5. Special terms/ risks?
