What happens in a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment?
Most people know Phase I (the records review and site walk). But Phase II is where we get our hands dirty—literally.
We install soil borings, collect groundwater samples, and send everything to an accredited lab to confirm (or rule out) contamination. The data tells us exactly what’s there, at what concentrations, and how it might affect your deal or redevelopment plans.
Recent project example: A former gas station in Calgary showed elevated hydrocarbons in the soil. Phase II data allowed the buyer to negotiate a $185k price reduction + a clean closure plan.
Thinking about buying, selling, or redeveloping commercial/industrial property in Alberta?
