This document is a guideline for Ontario professional engineers providing Environmental Site Assessments (ESA), Site Remediation, and Environmental Risk Assessment and Management Services. Its purpose is to highlight the professional and ethical responsibilities and to provide a benchmark to evaluate the level of professional practice and quality of work required of a professional engineer practicing in this field.
Engineers practicing in Ontario should be aware that a phased ESA completed to support the filing of a Record of Site Condition (RSC) shall be conducted or supervised by a “qualified person” (QP), as defined under Ontario Regulation (O. Reg.)153/04. An engineer can be a QP if they hold a licence, limited licence or temporary licence under the Professional Engineers Act.
