Summary
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a central challenge in environmental due diligence, driving new risks and expectations across industries globally. This webinar will explore how PFAS considerations are reshaping traditional Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) and expanding the scope of inquiry across a range of business activities, including property acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions (M&As), vendor selection and approvals, and corporate restructuring.
Join this discussion to learn how PFAS fits within existing ESA frameworks while challenging conventional approaches and driving a shift toward more proactive, risk-informed due diligence. Key topics will include evaluating PFAS at the enterprise risk level, assessing the impact of regional contamination on business operations, and addressing third-party risks associated with neighboring properties and shared infrastructure. The session will also cover operational due diligence considerations, such as worker protection and safety protocols in environments with potential PFAS exposure, as well as the growing importance of supply chain diligence.
Designed for environmental professionals in both industry and consulting, this webinar will provide practical approaches, case-informed insights, and forward-looking strategies to help organizations identify, assess, and manage PFAS risks across the full lifecycle of environmental due diligence.
