A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) (now known as "All Appropriate Inquiry or AAI") is an important action a purchaser can take to learn about the property's past use, the environmental conditions at the site and adjoining sites, and the likely presence of hazardous substances.

If the Phase I ESA identifies potential hazardous substances, a Phase II ESA is usually conducted to confirm the presence or extent of contamination. Phase II ESAs involve the collection and analysis of samples.

Transaction Screens represent a reduced scope of work from the Phase I Assessment and are designed to aid in developing information about the environmental condition of commercial real estate.

Since the inception of the technology, GIS has been an integral component in environmental management. A GIS links geographic and attribute data, such as lab and field data, which allows you to do predictive modeling for planning and compliance purposes.
