“Natural Resources Damage” is the injury to, destruction of, or loss of natural resources resulting from a Hazardous Substance Release. The measure of damage is the cost of restoring injured natural resources to their pre-Hazardous Substance Release baseline condition, compensation for the interim loss of injured natural resources pending recovery, and the reasonable cost of a damage assessment.
