What is usually concluded at the end of a Tier 2 assessment?

At the end of a Tier 2 assessment, a comprehensive site report is usually concluded. This report is critical as it provides detailed findings from the assessment, including information on the site's condition, the nature of any contaminants present, and the potential risks to human health and the environment. The comprehensive site report serves as a foundational document that can guide future actions, whether they involve remediation, risk management, or regulatory compliance.

In contrast, other options may appear appealing but do not accurately reflect the outcome of a Tier 2 assessment. A decision on land use typically comes after deliberating various assessments and planning processes, not solely from a Tier 2 assessment. A Tier 1-like summary would be less detailed and not representative of the in-depth analysis carried out during a Tier 2 assessment. A referral for community action may be part of community engagement efforts but is not a standard conclusion of the Tier 2 assessment process itself. Thus, the comprehensive site report stands out as the definitive product of a Tier 2 assessment.
