17、ion Organizations are increasingly interested in understanding the environmental issues associated with their sites and activities or those of potential acquisitions. These issues and their associated business consequences can be appraised by means of an Environmental Assessment of the Site and Orga

18、nization (EASO). Such an assessment may be carried out during operations or at the time of acquisition or divestiture of assets and may be conducted as part of a broader business assessment process often referred to as “due diligence“. This International Standard gives guidance on how to conduct an

19、EASO. It provides the basis for harmonization of the terminology used and for a structured, consistent, transparent and objective approach to conducting such environmental assessments. It can be used by all organizations, including small- and medium-sized enterprises, operating anywhere in the world

20、. This International Standard is flexible in its application and may be used for self-assessments as well as external assessments, with or without the need to employ third parties. The users of this International Standard are expected to be industry, past, present and possible future users of partic

21、ular sites, and organizations with a financial interest in the industry or site (e.g. banks, insurance companies, investors and site owners). This International Standard is likely to be used in connection with the transfer of responsibilities and obligations. The information used during an EASO may

22、be derived from sources that include environmental management system audits, regulatory compliance audits, environmental impact assessments, environmental performance evaluations or site investigations. Some of these assessments or investigations may have been conducted using other relevant ISO stan

23、dards (e.g. ISO 14001, ISO 14011 or ISO 14031). Through the process of evaluating both existing and newly acquired information, an EASO seeks to draw conclusions relating to business consequences associated with environmental aspects and issues. Conclusions in an EASO should be based on objective in

24、formation. In the absence of validated information, an EASO assessor may be required to exercise professional judgement in evaluating the available environmental information and drawing conclusions. This International Standard does not provide guidance on intrusive investigations or site remediation

25、. However, if requested by the client, these may be undertaken in accordance with other standards or procedures. EN ISO 14015:2010 (E) BS EN ISO 14015:2010INTERNATIONAL STANDARD EN ISO 14015:2010 (E)1Environmental management Environmental assessment of sites and organizations (EASO) 1 Scope This Int

26、ernational Standard provides guidance on how to conduct an EASO through a systematic process of identifying environmental aspects and environmental issues and determining, if appropriate, their business consequences. This International Standard covers the roles and responsibilities of the parties to

27、 the assessment (the client, the assessor and the representative of the assessee), and the stages of the assessment process (planning, information gathering and validation, evaluation and reporting). The process for conducting an EASO is shown in Figure 1. This International Standard does not provid

28、e guidance on how to conduct other types of environmental assessment, such as: a) initial environmental reviews; b) environmental audits (including environmental management system and regulatory compliance audits); c) environmental impact assessments; or d) environmental performance evaluations. Int

29、rusive investigations and site remediation, as well as the decision to proceed with them, are outside the scope of this International Standard. This International Standard is not intended for use as a specification standard for certification or registration purposes or for the establishment of envir

30、onmental management system requirements. Use of this International Standard does not imply that other standards and legislation are imposed on the client or the assessee.
