The seminar will be held Thursday afternoon, after the regular conference session ends. This workshop will address ways to determine the quality of environmental laboratory data reported to water quality programs. Participants will learn concepts related to the verification and validation of laboratory test results reported to federal, state and municipal compliance & monitoring programs. A specific focus will include automated tools available for use with electronic data deliverables. Please link to the APHL registration page on ASDWA’s Annual Conference registration page above.
