Environmental Insights for More Informed Property Decisions
TTI Environmental invites lenders, bank and financial-institution risk managers, credit and underwriting professionals, portfolio managers, commercial real estate stakeholders, developers, attorneys, contractors, and municipal representatives to a virtual Lunch & Learn Webinar on Thursday, October 29, 2026, from 12 noon to 130 p.m. ET.
This practical program will explore environmental considerations that can affect commercial-property collateral, lending and underwriting decisions, construction financing, redevelopment projects, facility operations, and ongoing portfolio risk. Through three concise presentations and real-world case-study perspectives, TTI professionals will discuss conditions and publicly available information that may warrant further review before or during a transaction, construction project, or property-management decision.
SESSION PREVIEWS:
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap: Soil Management Planning During Construction Projects
– with Andy Basehoar, LSRP and Kristin Heimburger, LSRP
For construction lenders, developers, owners, and risk-management professionals, unexpected soil and fill issues can create project delays, added costs, disposal concerns, and compliance complications. This session will cover:
-
- NJDEP Dirty Dirt Law considerations.
- Alternative-fill and clean-fill guidance.
- Lessons learned from a Virtua Hospital case study.
Take My Breath Away: Assessing Risk with Vapor Sampling
– with Flint Kinkade and Kevin Garbaccio
Vapor intrusion may affect occupied buildings where volatile compounds in soil or groundwater migrate into indoor air. For lenders and property stakeholders, the concern may be relevant to property use, tenant comfort, project timing, mitigation costs, and potential remediation needs. This session will discuss:
-
- Operations and property types that may present heightened vapor-intrusion concerns.
- The role of sub-slab soil-gas and indoor-air sampling, especially in urban areas.
- Mobile laboratory case-study insights.
Watch Me Unravel Your Site: Online Research Tools
– with Dave DiPascale, LSRP, Rob Russel and Trevor Mays
Before a loan closes, refinancing proceeds, or a project advances, desktop research can help identify questions that may deserve additional environmental review. This presentation will demonstrate online tools and resources that can assist with initial property research, including:
-
- NJ-GeoWeb, NJDEP DataMiner, NJDEP DocMiner.
- Financial-obligation research.
- Regulated underground storage tank information.
Whether you work in lending, underwriting, risk management, property ownership, redevelopment, construction, or environmental consulting, this program is designed to offer practical information that supports more informed property and project decisions.
