support our compliance with these requirements globally. Although it is our intent to comply with all such requirements and regulations, we cannot provide
assurance that we are at all times in compliance. Environmental requirements are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over
time. Accordingly, we cannot assure that environmental requirements will not change or become more stringent over time or that our eventual environmental
costs and liabilities will not be material.
Certain environmental laws assess liability on current or previous owners or operators of real property for the cost of removal or remediation of
hazardous substances. In addition to clean-up actions brought by U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. agencies, plaintiffs could raise personal injury or other
private claims due to the presence of hazardous substances on or from a property. We are currently in the process of investigating and cleaning up some of our
current or former sites. In addition, there may be soil or groundwater contamination at several of our properties resulting from historical, ongoing or nearby
activities.
At December 31, 2011, December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the reserve for environmental investigation and remediation was approximately
$22 million, $23 million and $21 million, respectively, of which $7 million, $8 million and $5 million, respectively, related to sites within the U.S. We cannot
ensure that our eventual environmental remediation costs and liabilities will not exceed the amount of our current reserves. In the event that such liabilities
were to significantly exceed the amounts recorded, our results of operations could be materially affected.
