An environmental services firm (ESF) was providing due diligence, site assessment, and remediation services for an international pharmaceutical company that wanted to divest of two contaminated properties. The pharmaceutical company was unable to find a purchaser because of pending litigation involving environmental contamination.  The ESF firm recommended that its client engage ECAP to find a solution.

ECAP delivered a qualified buyer willing to pay full asking price for the properties, secured project financing, and mitigated potential liability risks through negotiated insurance policies. The ESF firm received a substantial referral bonus from ECAP and greatly enhanced its reputation with the client and attorneys.

An ESF firm had a client that was leasing a building and facing a $10 million lawsuit from the building’s owner for property damage due to environmental contamination. The ESF firm turned to ECAP.

ECAP found a qualified buyer willing to pay full market value for the property, thereby eliminating the need for litigation. The client paid the cleanup costs and extended its lease to help secure financing for the transaction.  ECAP negotiated both the insurance and the financing.  Ultimately, the EHS firm secured $600,000 in remediation work and greatly enhanced its reputation with the client and the attorneys.

ECAP advises a leading international ESF firm on project finance, structuring, and management for all of its water and waste management projects in New England.  In addition, ECAP brings this ESF firm opportunities to invest in environmental projects and companies and, in some cases, partners with the firm on these endeavors.
