We test and conduct site evaluation services for all types of water contamination problems. We have worked with local municipalities, state organizations, industrial partners, lake associations, and private individuals. We routinely test for coliforms and E.coli (State Certified Labs in 4 locations in the State of WI), as well as pathogen isolation, and bacterial recovery for microbial source tracking. We have worked with clients to identify the sources of pollution in recreational waters (lakes and rivers) and then develop management and remediation plans that are cost effective and viable. Due to the various lab locations in the State we can collect and analyze samples within 2-4 hours. Results are usually available within 24-30 hours.

We also provide well testing in Ashland and Vilas Counties. In these counties we will conduct bacterialogical testing of well water for all well drillers and other interested parties. Contact your local health Department for details or e-mail, or call, Dr. Kleinheinz.
