BBN is here to help you do your Environmental Due Diligence (EDD) and assess whether the land you're looking to buy or work on is fit for purpose. Our experienced team of consultants will work with you to ensure you get the best possible report on the state of the land in question, so you know if your purchase and the following work is tenable.
Before you complete a purchase of any land, it is vital to complete an environmental due diligence assessment. This saves you from dealing with safety and legal issues as you continue your build, and even after the fact in many cases. At the end of the day, the land owner is liable for all missed issues.
Whether you're looking to buy and sell, settle in for the long term or start a large project, it's vital that you complete an official and qualified Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) or Site Contamination Assessment (SCA) on the land you're working with.
Environmental due diligence is the process of investigating and assessing the environmental risks and liabilities associated with a property or business. It is a critical step in the acquisition, financing or development of a property. Our assessments look at:
A desktop review of records, aerial imagery and registers to identify past activities that may have left contamination behind.
Sampling and NATA-accredited laboratory analysis to identify contaminants in soil before you commit to the site.
Assessment of water on and around the site for contamination that could affect development or ongoing use.
Identification of asbestos and other hazardous building materials on existing structures. See our asbestos testing services.
Searches of contaminated land registers and a review of the site's regulatory standing and obligations.
A clear picture of the environmental liabilities that could impact the value or future use of the property, and what to do about them.
