Phase I ESA- Prepared for residential and commercial
properties within the scope of the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) as specified
in the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM)
standards E 1527-00 and E 1527-05. As such, these practices are
intended to satisfy one for the requirements to qualify for the
innocent landowner defense to CERCLA liability that constitute
“all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of
the property consistent with good commercial or customary
practice”. The Phase I investigation can also include
preliminary asbestos investigation, sampling and laboratory
analysis, where applicable. HAI completes an estimated value of
150 to 200 Phase I ESA audits per year. We cover all of Florida,
The Bahamas, and the Caribbean.
Phase II Investigations are conducted to determine the presence
or absence of hazardous or industrial substances. Phase II
investigations will be designed to estimate quantity and type of
impacted soil or groundwater. The presence or absence of
hazardous substances is documented by independent laboratory
analysis. HAI conducts approximately 100 Phase II ESA a year and
they include limited and extensive soil/groundwater sampling
events.
Site Assessments Reports - HAI offers preliminary and in-depth
site assessment services to address regulatory conformance and
environmental concerns. In addition, the investigations
delineate the areal extent of hazardous substances and petroleum
products. Our professional staff is skilled in the use of
assessment techniques such as tank and line tightness testing,
soil gas surveys, test drilling, soil/groundwater sampling,
groundwater modeling and geophysical surveys. HAI conducts
approximately 20 SAR (Site Assessment Reports) a year. HAI also
performs assessments of underground storage tank systems to
determine if they meet current regulations and can make
recommendations to upgrade the systems, when necessary.
Remediation and restoration of contaminated properties. The
Remediation process will take account the type(s) and quantity
of contaminants in an effort to satisfy all regulatory
requirements relative to the subject property in a cost
effective and efficient manner. We strongly encourage client
involvement and communication during the cleanup process to
identify critical factors such as cost effectiveness, time
constraints, regulatory compliance, client concerns, etc. The
Remedial Action Plans (RAP) prepared by HAI include the
following items which we have extensive experiences.
• Source Removal
• Air Sparging
• Soil Upon Extractions
• Pump & treat
• Bio-Remediation
• Natural Attenuation Monitoring Only
• Risk based closured Utilizing deed restrictions
HAI is currently working on 15 ongoing Remediation projects in
South Florida. Of these, 8 site remediations are in the State
Funded programs.
HAI is a State Approved Petroleum Contractor (licensed and
insured). HAI has extensive experience providing underground
storage tank removal services, including development of plans,

collecting required environmental samples, and preparing closure
reports. If tanks are to be closed in place or be used to store
other products, HAI can assist in meeting applicable
regulations. HAI conducts approximately 10 tank removal and Tank
Closure Assessment Reports (TCAR) a year.
