Environmental Requirements

​If the SBA loan amount is less than $250,000, a questionnaire found here is all that may be required: Partner EQ

If the SBA loan amount is over $250,000, begin with a Records Search with Risk Assessment (RSRA) AND an Environmental Questionnaire: Partner EQ

The environmental questionnaire is filled out by the current owner.

A Phase I is required if there is a NAICS code match (except for a unit in a multi-unit building) or if the property or adjacent properties may pose an environmental impact: NAICS Codes ESI
