Water Quality & Water Resources

Surf to Snow installs and monitors sensors in a way that assures quality collection of data. Our experience with these techniques helps us generate reliable data for your project.  Our extensive experience with water quality sampling allows us to provide onsite collection of multiple samples to generate project-specific required analytical information. Working with certified analytical laboratories, we transfer samples under chain of custody requirements with appropriate storage and handling techniques.

In-situ water quality monitoring for field parameters is available as needed per project requirements. These monitoring services may be provided on a contractual basis or as a one-time event.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC), with regard to sampling protocols, will be implemented. We conduct analytical sampling for trace metals at your project site using two-person “clean hands – dirty hands” techniques derived from US EPA Methodology 1669: Sampling Ambient Water for Trace Metals at EPA Water Quality Criteria Levels (US EPA 1996). We assure that collected samples are analyzed by certified laboratories experienced with trace metal clean methodologies and requirements. Our experience with these techniques allows us to provide your staff with on- or off-site training in trace metal clean techniques. We also examine previous studies for data integrity and applicability to current standards.
