French term

mesures relatives à ce qui est normalement prévisible ... produits traités

French to English Tech/Engineering Other Warehousing
This is from a Logistics Cooperation Agreement. I'm having trouble unravelling the first part of the sentence.

XXX devra prendre les mesures relatives à ce qui est normalement prévisible pour un non professionnel des produits traités, en l’état actuel des connaissances techniques et scientifiques à la date de signature du présent contrat, relativement aux produits concernés et ne pourra être tenu responsable ni de l’évolution des produits ou de leurs caractéristiques, ni de l’évolution ou altération de ces évolutions ou modifications ni des conséquences ou développements de celles-ci.

Thank you

Reposted from Request Clarification section John Peterson: 3:38pm Oct 23, 2008: anticipate (or take into account) for prévisible might be better than foresee
writeaway: 3:53pm Oct 23, 2008: the measures are relating to what is normally/usually/routinely expected/anticipated/foreseen FOR the non-professionals etc.

Thank you! It looks so simple now! Long day...
Rebecca Elliott (asker) Oct 23, 2008:
Hi writeaway. No, it's more the structure of the sentence confusing me.
Is it basically saying that XXX is required to take those measures that non-professionals in this field are usually able to foresee?
writeaway Oct 23, 2008:
Is there a specific term causing you probs?

Hello,

I think you understood well. I'd word it this way:

XXX must takes measures normally anticipated/foreseen by a non-professional of processed products.

relatives à ce qui est = concerning that which is normally foreseeable by

I hope this helps.
