SB 1039 Water quality laboratory certification.
Introduced by: Madison E. Marye | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Water quality laboratory certification. Requires the Division of Consolidated Laboratories to develop a certification program for laboratories conducting tests that are used to support Virginia's air, water and waste laws. Once the program is established, laboratories must be certified before tests and analyses conducted by them may be used for purposes of the air, water and waste laws. Laboratories that meet minimum criteria to be established by the Division may be partially or fully exempt. A fee system is to be established to cover the cost of the certification program. While the bill does not become effective until 1998, the Division of Consolidated Laboratories is to report by December 20, 1997, on the estimated costs and personnel requirements for establishing and administering the program.
