Environmental
Monitoring water and waste is a critical component of keeping communities safe. Anyone can test their water, well or pipes for potablity.
And every production facility must maintain records of clean water inputs and disposal practices to ensure compliance. Columbia Laboratories is TNI and EPA certified for testing water.
Changes in our service operations
Thank you for partnering with Columbia Labs for your environmental testing needs.
Due to industry-wide resource limitations and legal concerns, we are changing our approach to historical sampling needs.
We ask that you inform us of your sampling needs by requesting individual sampling events via our chain of custody (COC), attached here. Our Real Estate Kit COC, Coliform COC, and General Environmental COC are also available in our sample submission page.
Please email Mark Leed at Mark.Leed@tentamus.com, with any questions.
