Our Phase I & II Environmental Site Assessment Services uncover hidden environmental hazards and ensures regulatory compliance.
What is Phase I & II Environmental Site Assessment?
Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments are essential components of environmental due diligence, especially in real estate and industrial transactions. These assessments help identify potential or existing environmental liabilities that could impact the value, usability, or safety of a property.
- Phase I ESA involves historical research, site inspection, and a review of regulatory databases to determine if recognized environmental conditions (RECs) are present.
- Phase II ESA is conducted if Phase I results suggest contamination risks. It involves collecting and analyzing soil, groundwater, surface water, or vapor samples to confirm and assess contamination.
By conducting an environmental assessment phase 1 and 2, businesses can avoid legal entanglements, secure financing more easily, and fulfill environmental responsibilities with confidence.
Our Phase I & II Environmental Site Assessment Services
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
We conduct Phase I Environmental Site Assessments in accordance with ASTM E1527-21 standards, tailored to meet All Appropriate Inquiry (AAI) requirements. Our process includes:
- Site visits and visual inspections
- Historical land use reviews
- Regulatory database checks
- Interviews with owners, occupants, and local authorities
- Review of permits and environmental records
We assess commercial, industrial, and manufacturing properties, focusing on identifying recognized environmental conditions that may require further action. Our findings are compiled into detailed, easy-to-understand reports that support your compliance and decision-making.
This stage helps clients reduce exposure to environmental risks and ensures proper documentation of environmental due diligence.
Phase II Environmental Site Assessment
If Phase I results identify environmental concerns, we proceed with a Phase II Environmental Assessment, performed under ASTM E1903-19 guidelines. This phase includes:
- Sampling and laboratory analysis of soil, groundwater, soil gas, or surface water
- Testing for hazardous substances like petroleum hydrocarbons, heavy metals, solvents, and VOCs
- Vapor Encroachment Screening (VES) per ASTM E2600-15
- Mold, lead-based paint, and asbestos assessments
- Site-specific Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs) when required
Our phase 2 environmental assessment provides quantifiable data to determine the presence, type, and concentration of contaminants. This allows stakeholders to accurately assess liability, remediation needs, and potential restrictions on property usage.
Our team ensures that every assessment is executed with precision and in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations.
