I have a client that is requiring a phase I ESA. He has requested that it is in parcel format. Can you provide this service?
Thanks,
Mark

Comment on Ground Water by Arthur Bradfield

Still drilling wells for public water systems. This time of year is the low flow period of the hydrologic cycle and is the best time to conduct aquifer tests. These conditions will identify the worst case scenario for well yield and the amount of draw down in water levels.

Emphasis has shifted from infrared inspections and arc flash hazard anlayis, although these are key components of “An Asset Managment Plan”. This type of assessment will be directed at more preventiative maintenance progam that takes advatange of data plant personell already collect via the internet. Please call to discuss if you have input.

Anyone dealing with PARCEL? I have performed ESA’s for several of the national firms such as GRS Global, EFI, Partner Engineering, and DECA. Some use it while others have a dropbox or their own template. I am considering going with PARCEL for my own ESA’s but am open to suggestions.

We now offer Phase I Environmental Site Assessments using the PARCEL platform offered by EDR, Inc. This level of detail ensures we meet your requirements for all appropriate inquiry.

Phase I environmental site assessments should address the potential for vapor intrusion into existing or potential buildings. Contaminated sites such as Brownfields that have met the clean up levels for soil are finding they don’t meet standards for indoor air quaility. Lenders need to be aware of the potential impacts vapor intrusion can have on property values.

We are currently putting together a team to conduct arc flash hazard analyses of water treatment facilities. Many public utilites fall short of addressing the requirements of NFPA 70E, the consensus standard for electrical safety in the work place. Coupled with this effort will be implementing an infared inspection program, including the installation of infrared viewing ports. Systems will be more likely to conduct periodic infrared surveys of critical equipment if they don’t have to suit up and open panels on energized equipment.

Comment on Geothermal Conductivity by Arthur Bradfield

Knowing the formation conductivity and diffusivity are important pieces of information needed by the engineer to propertly size the loop field. While it is not so important in smaller installations, those that require more than 25 wells absolutely need exact data. Otherwise the well field will be oversized to cover their assets.

Ground water source development takes some doing. In eastern Tennessee it is critical to identify geologic contacts in the study area. These contacts are where the rock formations are more likely to be fractured, and the fractures enlarged by ground water flow. Identification of gaining and losing reaches of streams is important in studies where a public water systems has some fexibility as to where to locate wells and still be able to get the water where it needs to be.
