ASTM DUE DILIGENCE

RETURN TO SERVICES OVERVIEW


DESKTOP ASTM SCREENS

In certain circumstances, a tool such as the Desktop ASTM Screen may be useful to determine whether a site may be a "go" or "no go". While the Phase I ESA consists of four major components: a government records search, an historical inquiry, an owner/occupant/user questionnaire, and a site visit for the purpose of making visual and/or physical observations at the Subject Site, the Desktop ASTM Screen only provides the results of the government records search for the target property and surrounding areas. MartinEnviro can assist our clients in determining when such a screen is appropriate and in interpreting the results.

TRANSACTION SCREEN PROCESSES (TSPS)

A Transaction Screen Process (TSP) offers more information than the Desktop ASTM Screen and may be an appropriate tool for executing due diligence for those real estate transfers that are suspected of having a low probability of environmental concern. Utilizing the utilizes methodology provided in ASTM Practice E 1528-06, Standard Practice for Limited Environmental Due Diligence: Transaction Screen Process, MartinEnviro can ensure our clients receive a quality product that will be acceptable to those who need "the right to rely".
