Environmental Site Assessment Services

Florida Geotechnical Engineering provides Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) services, which in recent years  have become a vital and often necessary task to complete property transactions. The results of an Environmental Site Assessments can provide property owners, prospective buyers, and lending institutions with important information on which to base transactional decisions.

Florida Geotechnical Engineering actively monitors nationally accepted standards for performing site assessments and routinely updates assessment methods to ensure due diligence and conformance with current best-practices. Guidelines published by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the Association of Ground Water Scientists and Engineers form the basis for all site assessments performed by Florida Geotechnical Engineering. When desired by the client, site specific assessment requirements are tailored to projects where national guidelines may not be appropriate.

Our approach to the transactional Environmental Site Assessment is to tailor the investigation to best meet the needs of the client at the lowest cost. If Florida Geotechnical Engineering determines that subsurface assessment (drilling or laboratory analyses) is needed to fully provide the due diligence assurances required for a transaction, this recommendation is made immediately, prior to finalization of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. This approach saves our clients time and money.

Florida Geotechnical Engineering’s staff has performed Environmental Site Assessments at well over 100 properties and specializes in commercial, industrial, and agricultural properties. Through the experience of the geological staff, assessments are completed efficiently in accordance with state and federal requirements.
