Equipment used in PFAS sampling events must be made from acceptable materials, which include high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene, silicone, stainless steel, nylon, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acetate, and cotton.

Open channel flow measurement is a technique for measuring water flow in a variety of environmental flow monitoring applications ranging from irrigation channels, streams, storm water systems and wastewater effluent.

Measurements of water levels in wells provide the most fundamental indicator of the status of this resource and are critical to meaningful evaluations of the quantity and quality of ground water and its interaction with surface water.

Environmental and biological monitoring of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene. The EPA has national primary drinking water regulations for organic chemicals such benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene. Here is a link to the EPA regulations providing maximum contaminant level goals and maximum contaminant levels.
