Public Water Compliance Testing

Reliable Testing for Public Water Systems

Public water systems have ongoing monitoring requirements designed to protect the people and communities they serve. Joiner Micro Labs provides dependable bacteriological testing with timely results, responsive communication, and a process built around the needs of water system operators.

What It Means

What Is Public Water Compliance Testing?

Public water compliance testing is the scheduled collection and laboratory analysis of water samples required for regulated public water systems. In VA, laboratories performing microbiological and chemical analysis for public water systems must be certified by the Division of Consolidated Laboratory Services. Joiner Micro Labs provides bacteriological testing directly and coordinates with NELAP-accredited partner laboratories for chemical testing requirements.
