Water Purchase Waiver and Release
INTRODUCTION
You (“Participant”) are a passenger on Burner Express, a transportation service
organized by Burning Man Project (“Burning Man”) and have requested to purchase
potable water upon your arrival at the Burning Man Event. The water for purchase is
supplied by MECO McKinnies Equipment Company (“MECO”). MECO provides water
and water tanks/water system equipment rentals that are chlorine rinsed for
contaminants to State Standards for safe drinking water. Burning Man and MECO
hereby inform Participant of the possibility of water contamination after the water leaves
MECO’s potable water tank. Participant is warned that using any other water container,
unless provided by MECO for use with drinking water delivered by MECO, could be
harmful due to improper cleaning, environmental elements, containment materials,
human contact, nature, bacterial growth, or heat. Participant acknowledges that Burning
Man and MECO are willing to distribute potable water to Participants with their own
water containers under the terms contained in this Agreement.

supplied water, specifically releases, indemnifies and holds MECO, including its
employees, owners, assignees, and family, and Burning Man, including its officers,

specific condition that Burning Man and MECO shall have no liability whatsoever as a
result of providing potable water to Participant and everyone who consumes or uses the
water.
