Environmental site assessments (ESAs) are routinely used to determine the environmental condition of a property. Specifically, the objectives of an ESA are to:
- Determine if there is reason to suspect that contamination has occurred.
- Identify the nature of contaminants.
- Define the distribution of contamination in the environment, including air, water and soil.
- Determine the risk from the exposure to these contaminants.
- Evaluate the possibility of mitigating these risks.
