Abstract:

It is not unusual to see competitive bids on a specific Phase I Environmental Site Assessment differ by as much as fifty percent. The principal reason for this wide disparity is that environmental consultants often do not use the same scope-of-work, despite the fact that everyone is "meeting the ASTM E 1527 Standard." At issue is that many who rely on the ASTM Phase I Standard believe it to be a single scope-of-work. However, it is not. A significant amount of judgment and interpretation was intentionally built into the ASTM Standard. This can significantly impact the scope-of-work undertaken, and therefore, the cost. At the seminar, environmental consultants will learn about the many different scopes- of-work under the ASTM E 1527 Standard. Users of Phase I services will learn how to consistently ensure that the appropriate level of ASTM E 1527 is provided. Recognition of the fact that ASTM E 1527 is a multi-scope document may level the playing field and potentially allow Phase I providers to become more competitive, and users more knowledgeable about the inherent risks. The seminar will specifically address the legal risks to both providers of Phase Is and those who must rely on Phase Is. Finally, E&O coverage and its role in the Phase I marketplace will be discussed.
