Water Quality Monitoring & Compliance – Your Pennsylvania Partner

We provide comprehensive water quality monitoring and reporting solutions tailored for businesses across Northeast and Central Pennsylvania. With our  technical expertise and understanding of the regulatory landscape in the Commonwealth, we help you not only stay compliant—but also proactively protect your operation from hidden water-quality risks.

What We Do

• Required Monthly (PWS) Sampling & Laboratory Analysis
  We coordinate and execute routine sampling of your facility’s water supply (distribution system, entry points, taps, etc.). These samples are brought to our to state-certified testing laboratory in Dunmore, PA and analyzed for the full range of microbiological, chemical, and physical parameters.
• Regulatory Compliance Support
  Pennsylvania’s drinking-water regulation under Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act and Title 25 PA Code Chapter 109 sets out monitoring, sampling, reporting and record-keeping requirements for public water systems—including monthly or more frequent sampling of certain parameters than what a standard business might think of. For example:
  • Routine sampling for total coliform bacteria in distribution systems: monthly at minimum based on customer population served.
  • Residual disinfectant monitoring at weekly intervals—or more frequently—at representative locations in the distribution system among systems that serve public populations.
  • Audit-ready documentation: We not only perform the sampling, we supply certified chain-of-custody documentation, certified laboratory results, and assist with any required public-notification or corrective-action documentation if a result triggers follow-up.
• Full Reporting & Record-Keeping
  We compile your monitoring results into formatted reports ready for submission or internal review. We also help ensure your records meet the five-year retention rules (or longer, where specified) and assist with any triggered assessments or public-notification events per § 109.701.
• Consultation & Corrective-Action Planning
  If a sample result triggers a concern—whether microbiological (e.g., total coliform, E. coli) or chemical (e.g., disinfectant residual chlorine drop, lead/copper action-level exceedance)—we work with you to design follow-up sampling, system evaluation, and corrective measures. We then support your submission of documentation to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) as required.

Typical Monthly/Test Frequencies

Although your exact sampling schedule depends on your system type, size, permit status and whether you are classified as a “public water system,” some common monthly or weekly tests we assist with include:

• Routine total coliform sampling throughout the distribution network, with the number of samples per month determined by the number of service connections or population served.
• Residual disinfectant concentration monitoring in the distribution system (minimum once per week, and more frequently if your system is under a corrective action or uses certain disinfectants).
• If your facility uses a point-of-entry (POE) device for treatment, monthly microbiological monitoring on that device may apply.
• Quarterly or semi-annual monitoring of chemical parameters (lead/copper, water-quality parameters, disinfection by-products) as required under Chapter 109 depending on system size and classification.
