Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) and Limited Compliance Inspections
112 Golf Courses
Vertex performed Phase I ESAs and limited compliance inspections of 112 golf courses throughout
Japan. The scope of work included site visitations to approximately thirty of the golf courses to
inspect the grounds and buildings as well as adjacent properties to identify potential for on-site and
off-site sources of hazardous material releases; review of previous Phase I ESAs; review of
records relating to historic ownership, usage and site development; and review of published
regulatory records and publications related to on-site activities and potential off-site sources of oil
or hazardous material contamination. Additionally, we reviewed construction documents,
hazardous waste manifests, operational documents, asbestos survey or abatement reports, and
wastewater emissions permits. Following the above scope of work, Vertex prepared a spreadsheet,
which provided a risk ranking and details of environmental liabilities for each site.
Englewood, Colorado
Restoration Contractor
VERTEX served as the restoration contractor for Homewood Suite by Hilton Hotel, at their Englewood, Colorado location. Frozen pipes caused damage to the fire sprinkler pipes, eventually resulting in fire sprinkler pipe leaks that caused severe damage to nearly all common areas and hotel rooms. VERTEX immediately mobilized a qualified team to work with the carrier to identify the scope of work and provided Xactimate pricing to all parties before work started. VERTEX completed the project on time to allow the hotel to reopen for a major holiday weekend.
