Due to the process required for bacteriological tests, Laboratory Services must be notified before samples are submitted for this testing. Notification is not required for other testing. Tests for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Carbonaceous Oxygen Demand (CBOD) are only performed on Wednesdays. Scheduling tests for these compounds on other days will result in an increase cost.

All samples must be submitted in containers provided by this lab. Containers for samples are available at Laboratory Services. The cost of the container is included in the cost of the test.
