Phase I Desk study report
The desk study is an essential part of the site investigation process, it provides information on ground conditions, hydrogeology and potential contamination issues. This information is used to create a Conceptual Model for the site, which allows for a more accurate and cost effective site investigation. Having a desk study report undertaken prior to the purchase of a site would highlight any potential liabilities, which could reduce the value of the site or increase the costs of any future development.
