Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Woodstock

CSA Z769 generally covers transaction-driven work, while O. Reg. 153/04 applies to RSC filings, rezonings and municipal applications.

Woodstock properties needing confirmation come to us for Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments with boreholes, monitoring wells and laboratory testing to confirm or rule out contamination flagged in a Phase 1. Our Vaughan head office, about 130 km from Woodstock, means the site visit is straightforward rather than something we have to plan around.

For the complete process and report structure, see the Phase 2 ESA page.

A Phase 2 usually follows a Phase 1 — see our Phase 1 ESA page for Woodstock if that step hasn't happened yet.

Common questions

Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Woodstock

How long does a Phase 2 ESA take in Woodstock?

Usually three to six weeks, driven by drilling access, laboratory turnaround and how many locations need sampling.

How much does a Phase 2 ESA cost in Woodstock?

It depends on the number of boreholes or wells, lab analysis required, and site access. We quote a fixed price for a defined scope before starting.

Which standard applies?

CSA Z769 generally covers transaction-driven work, while O. Reg. 153/04 applies to RSC filings, rezonings and municipal applications.

Does a Phase 2 always follow a Phase 1?

Usually, yes — a Phase 2 exists to confirm what a Phase 1 flags, but it can stand alone if a specific concern, like a known spill, is already documented.
