French term or phrase: Remise en état des lieux
For a power purchase agreement, for a wind farm, I know that these refers to returning the property back in its original state but I'm looking for better wording here and something not so long, pls see below thanks

Si la Société de Projet ne paie pas un montant dû en application de l'Annexe 10 (Pénalités de Retard) ou de l'Article 3.2 (Date de Mise en Exploitation Commerciale du Parc Éolien) ou un remboursement en application de l'Article 3.5(d) (Date de Mise en Exploitation Commerciale Présumée) ou 8.8 (Remise en état des lieux) à la Date d'Échéance de Paiement de la Société de Projet, xxx aura le droit de tirer ce montant sur la Garantie de Construction.

site remediation


Explanation:
To provide a different term.

Here's a reference... I searched for "site remediation," so the French varies slightly from the source term.

The scope of the project includes all aspects related to the construction, operation, modification and decommissioning of the proposed wind farm, including: pre-construction surveys, site preparation, excavation, transportation of materials, WTG construction, power connection, post-construction and decommissioning site remediation.

Le projet englobe toutes les dimensions de la construction, de l'exploitation, de la modification et du déclassement du parc éolien proposé, y compris : levés pré construction, préparation de l'emplacement, excavation, transport de matériaux, construction des aérogénérateurs, raccordements électriques, post-construction et remise en état du site une fois déclassé.
