SUMMARY:Understanding the Changes to the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) Standard - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:ASTM International’s environmental assessment\, risk management and corrective action committee (E50) recently revised its standard practice E1527-21 for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs). The E1527 standard was originally published in 1993 to define “good commercial and customary practice” for conducting Phase I ESAs\, as well as meeting the USEPA’s All Appropriate Inquires Rule. The latest revision\, published on November 15\, 2021\, represents over three years of work and consensus-building by a team of over 250 experienced industry professionals\, including a balance of Users and Producers. This presentation highlighted key updates to the most current version of the standard. \nPresenter: Elizabeth Krol\, Principal at Ramboll [PDF]\nElizabeth led the historical research focus group of the E1527 Task Group\, which proposed revisions to reflect the current standard of care for the property due diligence industry.
