The need for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments

Over the years hundreds of properties in the state have become contaminated with toxic substances and petroleum products
The hazardous Materials Institute estimates that 0 to 40 percent of all commercial properties and as much as 60 to 90 percent of industrial properties in the U.S. are contaminated with toxic materials.

The federal ’Superfund’ law and other state environmental laws can hold property owners, lending institutions, and virtually anyone involved in the ownership chain of title of a contaminated property liable for cleaning up the site. An owner or lessee can be held liable for the clean-up even though they were not involved in creating the contamination. Since the cost of these clean-ups often exceeds the original value of the property, current environmental laws have had a formidable impact on the way American companies conduct real-estate transactions.

Limiting Liability

Liability for the clean-up of a contaminated property may only be avoided through the “Innocent Landowners Defense” to the’Superfund’ law. To qualify for this defense, the property owner must prove that he or she came into possession of the property after the contamination occurred, and that after making “all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and use of the property” prior to the purchase, he or she had no knowledge of the contamination.

More Details

A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is crucial in demonstrating that “appropriate inquiry” has been made.

The Phase I ESA identifies all site conditions that indicate the advisability of further investigation, or conclude that no further investigation is warranted. Thereby providing potential owners and lenders with the information required to make sound real-estate decisions.
