Environmental Site Assessments

Understand your risk. That sums up the idea of an environmental site assessment (ESA) — a tool that allows you to evaluate a property or asset for environmental liability before you buy or develop it. At GEL Engineering, we give you the peace of mind afforded by thorough environmental due diligence.

Our environmental site assessment engineers are not only experts in their field, but also understand that you need advice specific to your business and your market. We can review existing data for environmental findings of concern regarding the property or surrounding properties in federal, state or local agency environmental databases.

GEL Engineering has conducted ESAs for clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to lending institutions, real estate developers and construction firms. Whatever their situation, our clients know they can depend us for sound environmental advice, regulatory guidance and on-time deliverables.

We provide the following services:

• Environmental due diligence services
• Phase I and II ESAs
• Site characterizations
• RCRA and Superfund investigations
• Remediation/spill cleanup
• Voluntary Cleanup Contract (VCC) assessments
• Records review
• Regulatory database searches
