When a property cannot be remediated in accordance with the government standards, a risk assessment can be conducted for the property. Risk assessment combines the results of the environmental toxicology (hazard) and environmental fate (exposure) assessments. The environmental risk posed by a contaminant is a function of what happens when the contaminant enters the environmental (fate) and the hazards posed by the contaminant to humans (children, adults, workers), plants and animals in land and water.The risk assessor may develop property specific standards pertinent to the property or evaluate if the existing contaminant concentration is a cause for concern to humans or ecological components in the environment. We offer environmental risk assessment services for both due diligence and regulatory compliance purposes. Based on the outcome of the Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) and the identification of contamination, risk assessment may be a viable option when remediation is not technically and/or financially practicable.
