Your Investment Requires Careful Consideration

A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is performed on commercial properties to identify any existing or potential environmental hazards.

If you are buying or selling commercial real estate, conducting a Phase 1 environmental site assessment is a crucial step in the process.

This assessment assesses the presence of contamination in the soil or groundwater, and determines if it poses any health risks or harm to the environment.

What is involved in a Phase 1 Environmental Assessment?

At ERI Consulting, our goal is to produce a Phase I ESA that identifies any current or past environmental issues that may impact the value or usability of your property.

The assessment typically involves the following:

Site Inspection: A visual inspection of the property and surrounding area is conducted to identify any potential environmental hazards.

Records Review: Historical and current records of the property, such as previous environmental assessments, aerial photos, and topographical maps, are reviewed.

Interviews: Interviews with current and past property owners, occupants, and local authorities are conducted to gather information about the property's history and any known environmental issues.

Database Searches: Databases and regulatory agencies are searched for information about the property and its surrounding area, including any hazardous waste sites, underground storage tanks, and past spills or releases.

Evaluation of Findings: The information gathered during the assessment is evaluated to determine the presence or potential for environmental hazards and the need for further investigation.

Our final Phase I ESA provides a comprehensive evaluation of the property's environmental risks and includes recommendations for further action, if necessary. At ERI you get local Phase 1 ESA professionals who will deliver data you can trust. Contact us today for more information.

How Long is a Phase 1 ESA Good For?

The validity period of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) depends on several factors, including the type of property, the level of risk, and local regulations. Typically, a Phase I ESA is considered valid for one to two years from the date of completion.

However, it's important to keep in mind that environmental conditions can change over time, and a previously low-risk property may become contaminated. Additionally, new environmental regulations and guidelines may be introduced, affecting the validity of the assessment.

In some cases, a Phase I ESA may need to be updated or repeated to reflect new information or changes in environmental conditions. This is especially important for properties with a high level of risk or for transactions that require a higher level of due diligence.

Remember, the validity period of a Phase I ESA is not set in stone and can vary based on the specific circumstances of each property. It is important to consult our qualified environmental consultants to determine the appropriate time frame for your assessment.
