The Consolidated Environmental Laboratory is a partnership between the Health Department and the Water Resources Agency of Monterey County. It is certified by the Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program of the California Department of Public Health (ELAP 1395). The consolidated laboratory conducts tests on samples derived from the environment for the purpose of assuring safe food, drinking water, reclaimed water, storm water run-off, and irrigation water. These services support the Board of Supervisor’s mission to improve the quantity and quality of water supply for the region by: 1) assuring that ground water quality is protected from contaminants such as nitrates; and 2) promoting use of reclaimed water from the Monterey County Water Recycling Projects by assuring its safety for food crop irrigation. The consolidated laboratory is also used by University of California-based research projects and is now working with H2O.inc as an active research partner.
