Water analysis laboratories in Florida

This report was commissioned by the Florida Senate Committee on Natural Resources in response to the EDB crisis of the early 1980s. The Senate wanted to know why there was an apparent shortage of testing facilities in the state to perform the high demand of EDB analyses, especially in ground water and well water samples. The author traveled to agency and private laboratories throughout the State of Florida to determine their capabilities for performing water analyses, especially the organic water contaminant EDB which required certain specialized instrumentation. Recommendations were provided by the author. This review provided by the author.
