What is included in an Environmental Hazard report?
The lists used in this report include the National Priorities List (NPL), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System (CERCLIS), CAL-SITES (AWP), Solid Waste Information System – SWF/LF (SWIS), and the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Information System (LUST). – Sites within 1/4 mile with a known leaking underground fuel tank will be listed. – Sites within 1/2 mile known to have contamination other than fuel will be listed. What can I do if the Environmental Hazard report comes back with unfavorable results? Contact the overseeing agency that is responsible for organizing clean-up efforts for that site. Contact an environmental professional to oversee a file review. Consider having an onsite Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment performed by a California Registered Environmental Assessor. How do I obtain general environmental information? Brochures published by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are a good source of general information.
