Water Methods and Detection Limits

Analytical Methods, Preservation, and Holding Times for Selected Analytes

The analytes listed in this table are frequently requested by Wyoming's Conservation Districts in their effort to determine whether or not surface water is impacted by agriculture or other activities in the drainage. The analytes requested depend on the water's beneficial uses and the type of activities potentially effecting its quality. This list is not all-inclusive; therefore the laboratory should be contacted during the design phases of a monitoring program.
