The Regional San Environmental Laboratory has been in operation
at the Sacramento Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (SRWTP)
since 1982. The laboratory employs trained, professional
environmental scientists and technical staff committed to
providing quality services to meet both routine and challenging
analytical needs for studies or monitoring programs.
Our Goal
Our goal is to consistently provide our customers with reliable,
high‑quality environmental laboratory services. In order to
achieve this objective, we maintain close working relationships
with our customers and offer manageable solutions tailored to
meet individual customer or program needs.
Laboratory Activities
In addition to providing the standard services (including trace
metals, organics, conventional chemistry, bacteriological,
microbiological and toxicological analysis), the laboratory also
conducts field monitoring and sample collection of ground waters
and monitors the water quality of the Sacramento and American
Rivers around the Sacramento metropolitan area. To accomplish
this task, the laboratory owns the Guardian, a 27-foot,
all-weather aluminum boat. At least once a week, a laboratory
boat crew travels the river, collecting water samples and
performing water quality measurements of the river at various
locations.
