Perspectives of the buyer, seller, landlord, tenant, lender and borrower will be considered. The discussion items also will touch on the ASTM 1527-13 standard governing Phase I environmental site assessments; vapor intrusion and indoor air issues; phase II investigations/subsurface testing, chapter 21E and release reporting; access agreements and licenses; and tools for allocating environmental risk.
