Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
GSC was retained by a global manufacturer to perform a Phase I environmental site assessment (ESA) of a facility they were seeking to acquire. During the course of the Phase I ESA, GSC suspected unreported contamination from manufacturing activities pre-dating the current owner's operations and devised a Phase II ESA investigation to determine the exent of groundwater and soil contamination at the site. The client ultimately decided not to pursue the acquisition due to the costs associated with remediating the site.
GSC's services included historical research using old aerial photographs and maps, together with deed searches to reconstruct the history of development at the property, from farmland to manufacturing infrastructure. During the Phase II ESA, GSC supervised the drilling of several monitoring wells, and collected soil and groundwater samples for chemical analysis.
