Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessments in Woodstock

For financing and transactions, CSA Z768-01 is the usual choice; O. Reg. 153/04 comes into play for RSC filings, rezonings and municipal applications.

We review Woodstock properties under a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment using records review, a site visit and interviews to flag potential contamination, with no sampling involved at this stage. Because our Vaughan head office is some 130 km distant, getting to site doesn't add cost or delay.

For the complete process and report structure, see the Phase 1 ESA page.

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