Weck Laboratories, Inc. participates in all mandatory Proficiency Testing (PT) programs required under the different certification programs. The most common are Water Supply (WS), Water Pollution (WP), Hazardous Waste (HW) and Underground Storage Tank (UST) and Radiochemistry (RAD) PT samples that are each analyzed twice per year. Every year, over 3,000 individual parameters are analyzed as blind samples and results processed by a certified third-party PT provider that sends the results to the different accreditation agencies for review. In addition, the laboratory participates in other non-mandatory and special PT programs and Round Robin studies. Copies of results of PT studies are available by request.
