Transaction and Due Diligence Services
Environmental Due Diligence (EDD) assessment, also known as Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (Phase 1 ESA), is a critical part of the risk and liability management process associated with any sensitive business transaction such as mergers, divestitures and acquisitions. The primary objective of a Phase 1 ESA is to identify whether there are any potential soil and groundwater contamination liabilities associated with the property/properties under assessment that could have a material impact on the transaction. The process typically involves a detailed site and environs reconnaissance, interviews with key informants (Key Site Manager) and desk study to determine the land use history and the physical and natural environmental setting in the subject property area.
Environmental Impact Assessment and Planning
Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) refers to the formal process used to predict the environmental and socio-economic cultural effects of implementing a particular project or activity; such as oil and gas exploration or the construction and operation of a new manufacturing facility. The primary objective of an ESIA study is to ensure that the potential impacts of a project on any environmental and socio-economic cultural receptors located within the projects area of influence (AOI), whether positive or negative, are assessed at the planning and decision making stage, thus enabling appropriate measures to be implemented to mitigate the adverse impacts of a project whilst enhancing the positive impacts, in accordance with the principles of sustainable development.
Regulatory Compliance and Risk Management
Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) Compliance Assessment is a critical part of the risk and liability management process associated with assessing, maintaining and improving EHS performance at a particular facility or operation. Clients typically instruct EHS Compliance Audits to assess whether operations and activities at a facility or project site are following host country legal requirements and corporate HSE performance standards, and where non-compliances are revealed, to identify the root causes and recommend the appropriate corrective actions.
Contaminated Site Assessment and Management
A Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment (Phase 2 ESA) is ASTM E1903-11 terminology for a soil and groundwater contamination assessment investigation. If a prior Phase 1 Environmental Due Diligence (Phase 1 EDD) assessment indicates that a property may be contaminated as a consequence of historic and or current activities on or in the vicinity of the subject property then it is normal practice to proceed to a Phase 2 ESA to actually confirm the contamination status of the property under assessment. A Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment is typically undertaken as part of the due diligence process associated with the acquisition or divestment of a property (transaction risk management driven) so that a client can determine whether there are any potential soil and groundwater contamination liabilities associated with the property that could have a material impact on the transaction.
