Environmental risk clarity through precision.
Turn uncertainty into actionable data with targeted investigations designed to safeguard your investments.
Why a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment matters.
A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is critical for confirming and quantifying potential environmental risks identified during a Phase I ESA. While a Phase I ESA identifies areas of concern, a Phase II ESA goes deeper by collecting soil, groundwater, and air samples for laboratory analysis. This detailed investigation provides the hard data needed to assess the extent of contamination and guides you on the necessary steps to mitigate risks. By conducting a Phase II ESA, you ensure that no environmental risks go unchecked, protecting your investment and keeping your project on track.
Thorough analysis for accurate results.
A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is an essential step in confirming the presence and extent of potential environmental risks. At Hanis Consulting, we conduct a detailed and methodical investigation tailored to your specific needs, ensuring you have all the information necessary to make informed decisions.
Our process includes:
- Soil, Groundwater, and Air Sampling: We strategically collect samples from key areas of concern identified in the Phase I ESA. This sampling provides a concrete understanding of any contaminants present on the property.
- Laboratory Analysis: The collected samples are sent to accredited laboratories for precise analysis. We rely on state-of-the-art technology and rigorous testing protocols to deliver accurate, reliable results, giving you a clear picture of the site’s environmental condition.
- Detailed Report of Findings: Our findings are compiled into a comprehensive report that details the presence and concentration of contaminants. The report includes clear visual aids, such as maps and charts, to help you easily understand the data and its implications for your project.
- Recommendations for Further Action: Based on our analysis, we provide tailored recommendations to address any identified risks. This may include remediation strategies, additional monitoring, or other actions necessary to mitigate environmental impacts and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
By performing a Phase II ESA with Hanis Consulting, you’re not just confirming potential risks—you’re gaining the detailed insight needed to manage those risks effectively and move your project forward with confidence.

Essential FAQs before choosing the best Phase II ESA consultant.
Choosing the right consultant for your Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is a critical decision. We’ve compiled the most important questions to help you understand the process and make an informed choice. Whether you’re evaluating consultants or considering your next steps, these FAQs provide the clarity you need to proceed with confidence.
When is a Phase II ESA necessary?
A Phase II ESA is needed when a Phase I ESA identifies recognized environmental conditions (RECs) that suggest potential contamination. It confirms the presence and extent of contamination through sampling and analysis.
How long does a Phase II ESA take?
Typically, a Phase II ESA can take 2-4 weeks, depending on the site’s complexity and the speed of laboratory analysis. Hanis Consulting offers expedited services for quicker turnarounds when needed.
What are the costs associated with a Phase II ESA?
The cost of a Phase II ESA varies based on the size of the site, the number of samples required, and the complexity of the testing. Hanis Consulting provides transparent, upfront pricing with detailed proposals.
What types of contaminants are typically tested for in a Phase II ESA?
Common contaminants tested include petroleum hydrocarbons, heavy metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other hazardous substances depending on the site’s history and identified RECs.
Can a Phase II ESA be conducted during the winter?
Yes, a Phase II ESA can be performed in winter, but certain weather conditions might affect soil sampling. Hanis Consulting takes seasonal factors into account when planning and executing the assessment.
Do I need to be present during the Phase II ESA?
While it’s not necessary for you to be present, some clients prefer to be on-site to observe the process. We provide detailed reports and clear communication regardless of your presence.
What’s the difference between a Phase I and Phase II ESA?
A Phase I ESA identifies potential environmental risks through records review and site inspection, while a Phase II ESA involves actual sampling of soil, groundwater, and air to confirm and quantify those risks.
What happens if contamination is found during a Phase II ESA?
If contamination is detected, the report will outline the extent of the issue, and Hanis Consulting will provide recommendations for remediation or further action to mitigate the risks and ensure compliance.
How do I choose the right consultant for my Phase II ESA?
Look for a consultant with extensive experience, proven expertise, and a commitment to delivering accurate, timely results. Hanis Consulting’s track record of successful Phase II ESAs makes us a trusted choice.
What regulations govern a Phase II ESA?
Phase II ESAs follow ASTM E1903 standards, as well as federal, state, and local environmental regulations. Our team ensures all assessments comply with the necessary guidelines.
How do I prepare my site for a Phase II ESA?
Preparation may involve providing site access, ensuring utility lines are marked, and sharing any relevant historical information. Hanis Consulting will guide you through any necessary preparations.
What are the next steps after receiving the Phase II ESA report?
After receiving the report, you’ll need to decide on remediation or further assessment if contamination is found. Hanis Consulting will provide recommendations and can assist with the next steps to address any identified risks.
