In Part One of this manual, we concentrated on performing Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) in accordance with ASTM E 1527 [1]. Part Two of this manual focuses on some of the key aspects associated with performing the Phase II Environmental Site Assessments (Phase II ESAs) in accordance with ASTM E 1903 [2]. As of the writing of this manual the ASTM task group was in the process of negotiating the necessary revisions that were needed to make the Standard consistent with the changes that took place in the Phase I Standard. Two main approaches to revising the Phase II Standard were under consideration. The 1997 version of the Phase II Standard allows great flexibility enabling the user and the environmental professional to design the process to meet the needs of the user. Some task group members suggested changes to make the Phase II Standard more prescriptive. This approach would simplify some of the decision-making process but could adversely impact the level of professional judgment, and thus potentially detract from the value and diverse applicability of the Phase II process. It is likely that the Phase II standard will be revised to describe the scientific methods and practices appropriate for various types of investigation that typically occur after a Phase I but before regulatory involvement. Most states have specific requirements for site assessment once contamination is identified and reported. The Phase II standard may address those situations when assessment activity is necessary but there is insufficient information to require involvement of a regulatory agency. Such activities can be related to business decisions (is the contamination present or not, big problem or little problem, does it leave the site) or LLP defenses (identify continuing obligations, reasonable steps, or confirm a REC). The scientific method described in the current Phase II standard is not likely ot undergo significant change, however the actual document could be substantially revised. The EPs should monitor the development of the Standards, and whenever applicable modify their procedures when strict conformance to the latest version of the Standards is desired or mandated.

In this chapter, we learn that E1903 changed in 2011 from a standard guide to a standard practice. This represents a significant change to the way in which the ESAs are conducted. The scoping process enables the consultant and the user to establish a mutually acceptable process that is based on scientific principles. The consultant designs the process. A thorough understanding of the objectives, needs, limitations, and requirements is crucial in the determination of the appropriate scope of the work. In this chapter, we introduce the potential diversity of Phase II ESAs, which will be further demonstrated by examples and case studies in the subsequent chapters.

In this chapter, we provide a brief history of the Phase I standard, discuss the effect of the Brownfields Amendments and AAI, and introduce some of the terminology used in the standard. We limit our discussion to just four types of players in the Phase I ESA: the lender, the buyer, the EP, and the regulator. We identify the scope of the standard and how it can be applied to establishing the scope of work with your client. Finally, we also touch on some of the limitations of the standard.

A work plan for a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is an articulation of those elements partially described in Section 7 of ASTM E 1903 [1], on Developing the Scope of Work. Work plans are generally included in the development of the scope, and thus comprise one of the first components of Phase II ESAs. The work plan describes how the recognized environmental conditions (RECs) identified in the Phase I ESA will be investigated to determine whether there has been a release of hazardous substances or petroleum products at the subject property.
