CHAPTER 252
LABORATORY ACCREDITATION

For more information or answer to your questions about Chapter 252 please contact PRWA trainer Carol Paul at cpaul@prwa.com

Chapter 252 Laboratory Accreditation is a new regulation which became effective January 28, 2006. These new laboratory accreditation regulations will affect water and wastewater facilities that perform testing required for any of the 12 statutes listed in 252.3 (which includes NPDES permits) affecting most wastewater facilities. Facilities have until July 28th to apply for certification so that they may continue to perform their own testing. Systems will need to send in an application for accreditation along with the correct fees and a Quality Manual. We will review the new regulations as well as go through the process of putting together the application packages at the training.
