Municipal
Our testing capabilities support municipal testing requirements.
The scope of testing at all our lab facilities aligns very well with municipal compliance and investigative testing requirements. This includes drinking water and wastewater testing, landfill monitoring, biosolid process and product testing, and sewer-use bylaw analysis suites. Our handy Sampling Guides provide additional information to you and your team.
Testmark’s labs are licensed by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, as well as accredited to ISO 17025, to provide drinking water analysis. Our reports allow for quick comparison to ECA or regulatory limits, and our team is proficient in adverse notification protocols.
Custom data uploads to municipal and third-party data systems is a routine offering, along with consolidated reports that facilitate year-end reporting activities. Testmark’s secure online data portal provides our clients with real-time results allowing access to interim results before the final report is completed and sent.
Emergency 24/7 response is a critical part of our offering to municipal clients. It ensures that we can help when emergencies such as water main breaks occur. Staff are on call to respond to your calls, and we can coordinate off-hour testing services when needed.
