Brilliant Lewis Environmental Services, LLC (BLES) provides a wide spectrum
of environmental consulting services to the residential, industrial, commercial
and public sectors. Our clients include builders, real estate developers, architects,
engineers, landowners, homeowners, service-station proprietors, real estate developers
and attorneys. From leaking oil tanks to full-scale brownfield redevelopment
to major building rehabilitations, we remedy your problems from beginning to end—from
diagnosis to cleanup. Plus, we work quickly and thoroughly with the most state-of-the-art
equipment available, ensuring you a timely and cost-efficient remediation. Our
environmental-consulting services focus on these three main areas: Brownfields
A big challenge for developers is identifying the potential environmental constraints
that exist on abandoned and underutilized properties. Each brownfield has its
own unique problems, and no two are alike. At BLES, we provide solutions for recycling
impaired properties by conducting comprehensive due diligence. Plus, we're fully
versed in the federal, state and local resources that can help offset the costs
and risks associated with developing these sites and will direct you to the appropriate
opportunities. To date, our clients have included developers, engineering firms,
property owners and law firms, as well as federal and local public-sector clients. Underground
Storage Tank Services/Remediation
Renowned in the field of underground
storage tank remediation, we at Brilliant Lewis work with both residential and
commercial properties. Oil companies enlist us to perform investigation and remediation
work, as well as provide expert testimony and litigation support. We also perform
tank-testing services and underground storage tank removal for homeowners, insurance
companies, realtors, developers and financial institutions. At BLES, we evaluate
each client's needs for site remediation in accordance with state and federal
rules and regulations and determine the most cost-effective and timely approach.
In addition, we're experienced with in-situ remediation, as well as alternate
methods, such as oxygen diffusion, chemical oxidation and bioremediation. Real
Estate Due Diligence
On November 1, 2005, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency published its final rule, which sets standards for conducting All Appropriate
Inquiries. Effective November 1, 2006, this rule establishes specific regulatory
requirements for conducting All Appropriate Inquiries into the previous ownership,
uses and environmental conditions of a property for the purposes of qualifying
for certain landowner liability protections under CERCLA. In the interim, parties
seeking protections afforded under CERCLA have two options for complying with
the statutory requirements for All Appropriate Inquiries (ASTM E1527-00) Phase
I Environmental Site Assessment: (1) Follow the requirements set forth in the
All Appropriate Inquiries final rule or (2) heed the requirements of the interim
standard for All Appropriate Inquiries established in the Small Business Liability
Relief and Brownfields Revitalization. Check back soon to
