FTC has over fifteen years experience in conducting pre-acquisition environmental audits for the food, hazardous waste, electronic and packaging industries in Ireland, UK and Europe. We have conducted both Phase 1 and Phase 2 assessments. The Phase 1 assessment is a systematic assessment of potential sources of environmental liability associated with a property and to identify recognised environmental conditions (RECs) in connection with a property. A Phase 2 assessment conducted by us involves more detailed investigations such as the installation of boreholes, groundwater surveys, air monitorings, contaminated land assessment. FTC has project managed a number of assessments both in Ireland, the UK and Europe.
