Business ProfileforEnviromarc Services Ltd.

This business states that Enviromarc offers three phases of Environmental Site Assessments. Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESA)/ Stage 1 Preliminary Site Investigations (PSI) - A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is a report prepared for a real estate holding that identifies potential or existing environmental contamination liabilities and typically addresses underlying land as well as physical improvements to the property. The actual sampling of soil, air, groundwater and building materials is usually not performed during this stage. A Phase I ESA is generally the first step in the process of environmental due diligence.

Phase II ESA/  Stage 2 PSI -  If after a Phase I ESA there is a chance contamination is present, the next step of environmental due diligence is a Phase II ESA. A Phase II ESA generally takes a much more in-depth analysis of the property and usually involves taking soil, groundwater and building material samples to test for contamination.
Phase III ESA/ Remediation - The remediation stage of an ESA, or the Phase III, occurs after all of the information from the Phase I and Phase II has been used to design a plan to return the environment affected to a natural, healthy and remediated state. A Phase III ESA or remediation plan is the final stage of environmental due diligence and can include any kind of methods or technologies needed to complete a remediation plan.
