Environmental Risk Assessments Survey
The Environmental Risk Assessment Survey or ERAS is a bit different from an ESA. The ERAS focuses not only on site conditions, but also on corporate philosophy, spill and contingency plans, and in-house training. The ERAS is a more proactive approach to managing environmental risk at a site or within a service organization. It is structured to evaluate existing standard operating procedures and facility programs for their effectiveness in reducing or eliminating both potential catastrophic and gradual pollution events. This is accomplished by assessing various areas of an operation which include:
- Corporate Organization,
- Environmental Setting,
- Layout and History,
- Operations,
- Training, and
- Contingency Planning.
After completing the ERAS, the risk management consultant summarizes both the positive aspects of the company's operations, as well as those areas needing improvement, and recommends a program that continues positive initiatives and improves deficient areas.
If you are in need of an ESA, it is best to sit down with a qualified environmental consultant to determine the best approach to the situation. Many times, the above assessments can be combined, altered, etc., to provide the best information available to assist in any decisions that need to be made about the property.
