ENVIRONMENTAL RECORD SEARCHES
Environmental
Record Searches are used to gather preliminary
information to support Environmental Site Assessments.
The Environmental Engineer orders one of our reports as
the first step in determining the risks involved with
property transfer. BBL Environmental Record Searches can
be centered on any site in the United States. Our reports
draw from all available Federal, State and Local sources
to provide detailed information regarding the status of
each environmental contamination concern within a mile
radius of the site. Reports will also disclose
information on permits to handle, transfer or store
hazardous materials within the search radius. Results are
identified on digital area maps and reports include
contour maps and a variety of add-on maps, aerial
photographs and historical reports.
DELIVERY FORMATS
All BBL reports are
delivered by e-mail in a Microsoft Word format within 24
hours or less. This format allows user to easily extract,
modify and add text and graphic symbols to the reports.
Additional items are sent as attachments in separate
e-mails. The reports can be shipped by UPS, or faxed.

Information.
This means all the details the
government database provides will be
included in the report. These might
be the case manager's notes or
details of what steps have been taken
to clean up the spill or address the
situation. This information is
critical in determining the risk
involved. The information will also
save time and money by helping our
client limit the visits and calls to
the agency.
