As liability and environmental awareness increases, so does the importance of sound environmental due diligence during property transactions. Private property owners, lending institutions, commercial real estate developers, investors and many other businesses unwittingly expose themselves to the liabilities inherent in property purchases and leasing transactions. RMEC provides site assessments for organizations and individuals involved in property transactions in order to assess the potential environmental hazards and to ensure protection from liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). Environmental site assessments prepared by RMEC meet or exceed the ASTM Standard of Practice E-1527-00. RMEC offers the following environmental assessment and related services:
