The Reese Group has completed a comprehensive environmental due diligence investigation of multiple parcels as part of a property transfer for a high-profile confidential client in the City of Milwaukee. The initial environmental due diligence activities began with the typical Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for each property completed in accordance with the most recent ASTM Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ASTM E1527-13).
Often, qualifying and quantifying contaminant releases that occurred decades ago is an arduous task as landforms change and contaminants are mobilized and can degrade overtime. The Reese Group’s environmental professionals utilized basic environmental forensic techniques to pinpoint potential areas of concern reducing the number of soil boring/groundwater monitoring well locations that were part of the subsequent Phase II site investigation activities.
