Conservation measures; liens; liability of museum
Sec. 15. If a museum applies conservation measures to property
under section 14 of this chapter or with the agreement of the lender,
unless the agreement provides otherwise, the museum:
(1) acquires a lien on the property in the amount of the costs
incurred by the museum; and
(2) is not liable for injury to or loss of the property if the
museum:
(A) had a reasonable belief at the time the action was taken
that the action was necessary to protect the property on loan
or other property in the custody of the museum, or that the
property on loan was a hazard to the health and safety of the
public or the museum staff; and
(B) exercised reasonable care in the choice and application
of conservation measures.
As added by P.L.2-2002, SEC.19.
