Environmental Site Assessments

Our Phase I ESAs are designed to identify potential environmental liabilities before they become costly surprises. Conducted in compliance with ASTM E1527-21 standards, our assessments include:

• Records Review: Examination of historical property records, regulatory databases, and environmental reports.
• Site Reconnaissance: On-site inspection to identify visible signs of contamination or environmental hazards.
• Interviews: Discussions with current and past property owners, occupants, and local officials.
• Detailed Reporting: A clear and comprehensive report outlining findings and recommendations.

If potential issues are identified during a Phase I ESA, we conduct Phase II ESAs to further evaluate the property. These investigations include:

• Soil Sampling and Analysis: Testing for contamination or hazardous substances.
• Groundwater Testing: Evaluating water quality and identifying potential pollution sources.
• Risk Assessments: Determining the extent of contamination and its impact on development plans.

With offices in Charleston, SC, and Annapolis, MD, and a service area spanning the entire East Coast, we bring deep regional knowledge and years of industry experience to every project.

We ensure that all assessments meet local, state, and federal regulations, giving you peace of mind and protecting you from potential liabilities.
