FAQ’s

  • Water sampling involves collecting representative samples using appropriate bottles and preservation methods, recording environmental conditions, and transporting samples to a laboratory for analysis. This can include sampling water in situ, such as groundwater from wells, surface water (rivers, streams, lakes), or other environmental water bodies, ensuring the sample accurately reflects site conditions at the time of collection.

  • Monitoring frequency depends on water use, regulatory requirements, and consent conditions.

  • Testing may include microbiological indicators, nutrients, metals, hydrocarbons, Ph, oxygen on demand, alkalinity, turbidity and other contaminants, depending on the water source and purpose.
