When real estate is transferred or held as collateral, a site
assessment is required to help determine the actual value
of the property and potential environmental liability.
Property owners, and sometimes lenders, are held to the
"strict liability" conditions of state and federal laws.
To reduce the chance of being a "potentially responsible
party" for the clean-up of contaminated sites, all parties
must demonstrate "due diligence" by performing "all
appropriate inquiry" conerning possible pollution.
Land developers often need site assessments for environmental
contamination, but also may be required to determine the
cultural history of a site and perform an archaeological
investigation, which can be provided by AMA.
Beyond the initial Phase I investigation, AMA can perform the
Phase II investigation to assess the magnitude of possible
pollution or contaminants, as well as the extent of any
archaeological findings.
Services provided include:
- Phase I Environmental Site Assessments
- Transaction Screen Processes
- Water and Soil Testing
- Archaeological Investigation
- Phase II Environmental Site Assessments
- Ground Penetrating Radar Studies
