Site Assessments
|
In today's litigious society, environmental site assessments
have become both commonplace and necessary. In fact, many real estate
transactions and business ventures require site assessments as part of
their due diligence. Yet no two sites are ever the same. Not only do the
tasks vary greatly, but so do the budgets, time constraints and communities
affected. That is why we begin every site assessment with the goal of
investigating every lead that we can follow to determine a clear understanding
of the site in question and the unique challenges that may lie ahead.
If you desire this kind of thoroughness in the preparation of your site
assessment, CSC is here to help.

Having a clear understanding of all the regulations as outlined
by CERCLA, RCRA, NEPA, TSCA, AHERA, and HUD, as well as other
federal, state and local environmental regulations, can be
quite daunting. That is where our staff of engineers, certified
industrial hygienists, geologists and highly trained technicians
can help. Over the years, CSC has investigated and managed
hundreds of sites and provided the guidance necessary to comply
with environmental regulations while avoiding litigation. |

When you need a thorough investigation
Before any site testing takes place, we start by visiting the site
and the properties directly adjacent to visually determine any problem
areas. Next, we review the records of any and all regulatory agencies
for information and data about the site. Our research continues
until we have determined the historical land use patterns for the
site and the surrounding area. And finally, we conduct personal
interviews with any knowledgeable people who have been associated
with the site over the years.
We're with you every step of the way
In addition to Phase I and II site assessments, we also provide
hazardous waste site characterizations; soil, air and water testing;
soil gas surveys; OSHA compliance services; Phase III site remediation
plans; and industrial hygiene consultation. All of our Phase I and
II site assessments are conducted in compliance with the current
ASTM standards. CSC's thoroughness and technical expertise
with all aspects of site assessment and remediation projects has
provided our clients with needed peace of mind that they will not
be facing costly and untimely disruptions. Furthermore, we know
how time-consuming and complex the remediation process can be, so
we guarantee that our services will be there for you until your
project reaches completion. |
