Phase I Environmental Site Assessments
Flatley Read provides professional Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) throughout New York, New England, and Pennsylvania, helping property owners, developers, and lenders identify potential environmental risks before purchase, refinance, or redevelopment.
Our experienced environmental professionals deliver reports that meet ASTM E1527-21 standards and satisfy lender and regulatory requirements — ensuring your project moves forward smoothly, with no costly surprises later.
Why a Phase I ESA Matters
A Phase I ESA is the first step in environmental due diligence. It evaluates whether a property shows any signs
of Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) — such as past contamination, hazardous materials, or
improper land use — that could impact your investment or liability.
Flatley Read’s team conducts:
- Comprehensive site inspections
- Historical research and records reviews
- Interviews with owners, occupants, and local officials
- Evaluation of adjacent properties and land uses
We then deliver a clear, defensible report outlining any environmental concerns and recommended next steps.
