Physical Setting Report (PSR)

The ERIS PSR provides comprehensive information about the physical setting surrounding a site, including a complete overview of topography, and surface topology along with a range of environmental factors – hydrologic, geologic, soil and water table characteristics. The location and detailed attributes of oil and gas wells, water wells, public water systems, and radon are also included. Our PSR is available for large/custom areas; and its layers can be viewed in ERIS Xplorer.

The PSR includes:

• Current topographic map
• DEM shaded relief map
• Hydrologic Information
• Floodplain map with a coverage inset map (more detailed than on regular report)
  • Mapped categories: existence of floodplain and its zone type, with some explanation
  • Attributes provided: Floodplain panel DFIRM number for people who are interested in original paper maps
• Wetland map (more detailed than that shown in regular report)
  • Mapped categories: Existence of wetland and its type, with legend
• Geology map
  • Mapped categories: geologic unit, attributes reported below
  • Attributes provided: Rock lithology, stratigraphic unit related attributes
• Soil map
  • Mapped categories: map units, attributes reported below.
  • Attributes provided: Map Unit name, Water table depth, Bedrock depth, Drainage class
• Pipeline and Survey Maps (TX only)
  • Mapped categories: survey and pipeline around the subject property
  • Attributes provided: survey ID, pipeline ID, status, commodity description with legend.
• Wells and additional source map
  • Summary and Details section (Federal USGS, Wells, Water Systems and OGW)
• EPA radon zones

The PSR can be added to your Database Report on the Order Form. Or it is included as part of ERIS’ E2 to E6 packages.
