Common questions about our environmental assessment services
A Phase 1 ESA is a non-intrusive investigation that involves historical research, database review, site inspection, and interviews to identify potential environmental concerns. It does not include physical sampling or testing.
A Phase 2 ESA is conducted when a Phase 1 identifies potential issues and involves physical sampling of soil, groundwater, or building materials to confirm the presence and extent of contamination.
A standard Phase 1 ESA typically takes 10-15 business days to complete. However, we offer expedited services with turnaround times as quick as 48-72 hours for urgent transactions, though additional fees may apply for rush services.
Phase 1 ESA costs $2,100 for standard 5-10 day turnaround depending on property size, complexity, location, and turnaround time. We provide customized quotes based on your specific property and requirements.
While not legally required for all transactions, Phase 1 ESAs are typically required by lenders for commercial real estate loans and are considered standard due diligence for commercial property transactions. They also provide liability protection under CERCLA as part of the "all appropriate inquiries" process.
According to ASTM standards, Phase 1 ESAs are generally valid for one year. However, certain components like the site inspection, interviews, and government records review are only valid for 180 days. After these periods, updates may be required to maintain the report's validity.
If a Phase 1 ESA identifies Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs), we will provide recommendations that may include a Phase 2 ESA to confirm contamination through testing. This information helps you make informed decisions about proceeding with the transaction, negotiating price adjustments, or planning for remediation.
