Prior to the sale of a property or refinancing, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is conducted to determine a sites past chemical history and present usage of the site and of any adjoining or nearby properties.
Chemical usage and disposal documents are reviewed, as are the storage of said chemicals documented, including the possible existence of underground tanks, and the facility is visually surveyed to establish the possible existence of past spills and on site disposal that would have contaminated the subject site. The files of the State, local agencies and the Environmental Protection Agency are reviewed to determine the company's past history of leaks or spills of past chemical usage. Agency files are also reviewed to determine if any activities took place on adjoining or nearby properties which could have a negative impact on the subject parcel. Municipal land records are reviewed to determine past usage of the property.
If the potential for contamination is discovered, a PHASE II ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT is conducted.
