Site Assessments

The overall increase in environmental awareness has had a significant effect in work places throughout Canada. Environmental Regulations in the province of British Columbia now require businesses to take an increasingly pro-active approach to site contamination issues.

Environmental awareness is an increasingly important part of corporate culture.

Many property owners and potential purchasers now routinely have Preliminary Site Investigations (PSI's) carried out prior to the sale or purchase of a property and before major renovations.

Most environmental Legislation follows a "polluter pays" policy, citing directors and company officers as potentially liable for the actions of a company.

While governments will continue to struggle with such problems as pollution, safe working environments, storage and disposal of hazardous materials, regulatory bodies are increasingly vigilant and act independently of economic trends.
