Assessment Associates, Inc. specializes in Phase 1 and Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments, which are an integral part of the commercial real estate due diligence process. Our geologists scour a variety of historical sources and municipal records to uncover the environmental history of your property, then we do a complete site inspection and conduct interviews of the current and past owners, managers, and occupants. Our reports adhere to an industry standard known as ASTM E 1527-13, which means we follow a strict set of prescribed tasks to insure that we find any potential environmental problems at your property that might be unknown to buyer and seller alike. A Phase 2 Assessment is recommended if the Phase 1 report identifies possible environmental contamination. The Phase 2 report includes the collection of soil, groundwater, or soil vapor samples to confirm and delineate such contaminants.Founded in 2006 by Michael O'Connor, a seasoned geologist practicing in Oregon and Washington, AAI has conducted hundreds of Phase 1 and Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments on almost every kind of property imaginable. Our staff geologists continue to develop sound solutions to complex environmental problems by combining time-tested strategies with the latest data management and remedial technologies. We can also tap our pool of outside mold, asbestos, and natural resources experts when necessary to offer a one-stop shop for environmental cleanup and compliance.
