Compliance Testing for Public Water Systems

Fredericktowne Labs provides certified drinking water laboratory testing to help public water systems meet Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) monitoring and compliance requirements.

We work with municipalities, water utilities, schools, healthcare facilities, community water systems, non-transient non-community systems, and other regulated facilities throughout Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and the surrounding Mid-Atlantic region.

Our team understands that drinking water compliance is more than simply generating an analytical result. Proper sampling, approved analytical methods, follow-up testing, documentation, reporting requirements, and dependable turnaround times all matter.

Lead & Copper Rule Compliance

Fredericktowne Labs supports public water systems with drinking water testing associated with EPA Lead and Copper Rule requirements.

Our team can assist with laboratory analysis, sampling coordination, bottles and supplies, and the logistics involved in recurring lead and copper monitoring programs.

For systems managing larger sampling events, we can work with your staff to simplify bottle preparation, sample identification, collection, laboratory submission, and reporting.

PFAS Compliance

PFAS regulations have created new monitoring and compliance responsibilities for public water systems. Our team understands the additional care required for PFAS sampling, including appropriate containers, sampling procedures, contamination control, documentation, and reporting.

Fredericktowne Labs can help water systems successfully navigate their PFAS monitoring programs.

Total coliform & E. coli Testing

Microbiological monitoring is one of the most common compliance requirements for public water systems.

Fredericktowne Labs provides total coliform and E. coli testing for regulated drinking water systems. Our experienced staff understand the importance of proper sample collection, preservation, hold times, repeat sampling, and regulatory reporting.

Whether you need routine distribution samples, repeat samples, triggered samples, or additional investigative testing, our team can help coordinate the process.

Lead Testing for Schools & Child Care Facilities

Protecting children from lead exposure in drinking water requires a testing program designed around the unique plumbing and water-use patterns found in schools and child care facilities. For school systems managing multiple facilities, drinking water testing can quickly become a significant logistical project.

Fredericktowne Labs has the laboratory and field capabilities to support both individual facility testing and large, multi-building sampling projects. We work with facilities personnel and environmental professionals to develop an organized process for sample collection, identification, analysis, and reporting.

Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)

The Safe Drinking Water Act establishes requirements designed to protect the quality of drinking water supplied by public water systems. Depending on the system and applicable monitoring requirements, compliance testing may include microbiological, inorganic, organic, metals, and other regulated contaminants.

Sample Collection

Getting a defensible compliance result starts before the sample reaches the laboratory.

Fredericktowne Labs provides sampling by certified collectors, sampling supplies and bottles, transport to the lab, documentation, and coordination to make your recurring compliance monitoring easier.

Our goal is to make the entire process—from scheduling and sample collection through analysis and reporting—as straightforward as possible for your operators and compliance staff.
