Phase II Assessments

Phase II Assessments

When a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) indicates the presence of an environmental hazard, a Phase II ESA is undertaken to present a clearer picture of the hazard and its associated risk and liability. A more intrusive process than the Phase I ESA, samples may be taken of subsurface soil, groundwater & wells, surface water, lead paint & asbestos, to name only a few. Depending on the nature and degree of hazard suspected, the process can range from collecting and analyzing a relatively few samples to employing complex sampling protocols. Sophisticated equipment and protocols demand that this work be performed by experienced professionals, and sampling results are analyzed by independent laboratories, maintaining a complete chain of custody for all samples.
