Environmental Site Assessment
In response to new environmental regulations in the Province of British Columbia, most companies have taken an increasingly pro-active approach to environmental concerns. Identifying and evaluating the potential project or operating challenges, risks and liabilities above/under the ground is crucial for owners, investors, developers and financiers when operating or undertaking major renovations or development of a property.
Mitigation of environmental liabilities or the successful remediation of a contaminated site demands that all aspects of the property including its historical use, geology, surface and groundwater, future land and water use, and risks are understood, evaluated and integrated into a cost effective plan.
