Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments in Orillia

CSA Z768-01 is typical for financing and transactions; O. Reg. 153/04 applies where the outcome feeds a Record of Site Condition, a rezoning, or a municipal application.

We review Orillia properties under a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment through document review, a site walk and interviews — non-intrusive, with no sampling done. Because our Vaughan head office is some 90 km distant, getting to site doesn't add cost or delay.

Full detail on the process and what's in the report is on the Phase 1 ESA page.

A Phase 2 ESA follows when a concern is identified — see our Phase 2 ESA page for Orillia.
