Which Test is Right for You?
If you have a private well, you may want to know if the water is safe for drinking.
You can have the nitrate and bacteria levels tested. A large percentage of private
wells in the area are known to have nitrate levels exceeding the limit set by state
drinking water standards. High nitrate levels in the feed water for infants younger
than 6 months can cause a serious sickness. Coliform bacteria is the most
common test requested to know the water potability. If you need more information
please feel free to read about home water testing or drinking water contaminants.
If you received the laboratory report indicating Coliform bacteria present , you
need to disinfect the well and water tank.
If you are unsure of which type of analysis is right for you, please call to the
laboratory (831 637 4590). Also, there are many online resources about ground
water and drinking water where you can get help.
If you a real estate agent selling a property that includes a domestic well, test for
total coliform, E coli, nitrates, arsenic, and minerals are offered to fill full the
requirements of the buyer, seller, and lender. We collect the samples, perform the
analyses, and ASAP send you an electronic report. Some test can be completed
in 24 hours.
Depending on your county, there will be varying requirements set on your water.
To obtain a permit to operate a domestic well, you must test various water
attributes and constituents. Please, contact the Department of Health Services in
your area and ask for the water analyses you may need. They also recommend
tests to carry out periodically.
For composting operations, the Integrated Waste Management Board of
California has set limits on specific contaminants in compost.
