Environmental

In Colorado, a 'phase II environmental site assessment' is performed when:

AA. Phase I shows no recognized environmental conditions
BB. The Phase I ESA identifies recognized environmental conditions (RECs) that warrant soil and groundwater sampling and laboratory analysis✓ Correct
CC. All commercial property purchases require it automatically
DD. A building permit is requested

Explanation

A Phase II ESA involves actual soil, groundwater, or building material sampling to confirm or rule out contamination identified as a Recognized Environmental Condition (REC) in the Phase I report. Phase II is not performed on every property — only when Phase I identifies potential concerns.
