Abstract
While sample collection to monitor drinking water quality is a routine practice, water utilities must be prepared to address emergencies stemming from contamination.
Having a plan for collecting and analyzing water samples during emergency response or other unusual circumstances better ensures actionable results.
Guidance is available to help laboratories prepare to support a utility's emergency response.
