Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, commonly referred to as Environmental Site Assessments, are often conducted for real estate property transactions, lending, and re-financing situations. Phase I Environmental Site Assessments are conducted to aid in significant business and risk management decisions associated with commercial real estate. The purpose of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is to assess a property for potential environmental liabilities based on current and previous property uses, review of environmental records, and a property site inspection. Sampling of building materials or subsurface sampling is not typically included with the standard scope of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment.

A Phase II Subsurface Site Investigation, commonly referred to as a Phase II, is often conducted after the completion of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) to confirm the environmental liabilities or suspect findings identified during the Phase I ESA process. Phase II Subsurface Site Investigations aid in significant business and risk management decisions associated with commercial real estate transactions, lending, and re-financing. Phase II Subsurface Site Investigations confirm whether environmental impact is present on a property through the sampling and laboratory analysis of soil and/or groundwater.

Have you ever wondered about the quality of your drinking water? The US Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) established health and safety standards for public water systems. The EPA regulates various contaminants in public drinking water supplies by establishing maximum contaminant levels, which are the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water, via the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations, also known as Primary Standards. The EPA also established the National Secondary Drinking Water Regulations, also known as Secondary Standards, which are non-enforceable guidelines regulating contaminants that may cause cosmetic effects (skin or tooth discoloration), aesthetic effects (undesirable taste, odor, or color), and technical effects (damage to water equipment or reduced effectiveness of treatment for other contaminants) in drinking water.
