Environmental Site Assessment Services

Pioneer Professional Services Group provides Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) services to oil and gas, industrial and commercial industries. ESAs assist in reducing uncertainty about potential environmental liabilities and in making informed decisions about property transactions. Our client base includes energy companies, realtors, property developers, lending institutions and business owners.

Phase I ESAs

• Non-intrusive site investigation designed to assess the environmental condition of a site and/or buildings
• Includes a historical records review, site visit and personal interviews 

Phase II ESAs

• Confirm the findings of a Phase I ESA through quantitative sampling and analysis. Sampling of soil, surface water, building materials and/or air may be involved
• Groundwater monitoring and sampling may be required if potential for groundwater contamination exists
• If samples exceed regulatory guidelines, delineation to determine contaminant extent may be required.   Following thorough delineation, a remediation plan can be prepared and/or financial liability can be ascertained 

Phase III ESAs

• In-situ and X-situ site cleanup

Note: In BC, Phase I and Phase II ESAs are referred to as Stage I and Stage II Preliminary Site Investigations (PSI).

Expertise:

• Meet CSA standards and Alberta Environment requirements for Phase I and II ESAs
• Completion of ESAs in all regions of the province including environmentally sensitive and remote locations
• ESA experience in conducting both groundwater and soils assessments involving a variety of contaminants including hydrocarbons, PAHs, solvents, salts, metals, asbestos, PCBs and glycols
