INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE:
Environmental site assessments are often
completed as part of a property transfer or
refinancing of commercial/industrial real
estate. This environmental site assessment is
important to the buyers, sellers and lenders
in identifying the potential liabilities of a
variety of hazards.
- Past/Present Property Use
- Waste Disposal
- Hazardous Materials Handling
- Underground Storage Tanks
- Contaminated Soil
- PCB Containing Equipment
- Asbestos Containing Materials
- Lead Containing Materials
- Regulatory Compliance Record
- Radon Gas
- Flooding/Drainage Problems
- Environmental Constraints
An environmental site assessment is phased in
order to provide the appropriate level of
detail.
The Level I Assessment develops an
understanding of the historical use of the
site. The site is inspected physically and the
signs of environmental hazards are evaluated.
The site records are researched for past
practices and regulatory compliance. The
probabilities of future problems are then
carefully evaluated.
