Around this lab: White County, IN

• Private wells: about 14,333 people, 59% of White County’s 24,293 residents (USGS, 2015); rank 38 of 92 counties in Indiana by people on wells.

• EPA radon zone (indoor air): Zone 1: highest potential (average indoor radon may be greater than 4 pCi/L). EPA says the zone map should not decide whether one home needs testing.
• Arsenic above 10 µg/L (USGS model): about 2,288 private-well users (95% range 1,771 to 2,897; 2010 base), rank 25 of 92 in the state. A screening estimate, not a measurement of any well.
• Older homes (Census ACS 2020–2024): 69% of 12,961 housing units were built before 1980, above the state share of 55%. Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead solder or fittings, so test tap water for lead there.
• PFAS in public water nearby (public supply, not your well): 1 public system serving this county reported EPA UCMR 5 results; 0 had a PFOA or PFOS sample at or above 4.0 ng/L.

Before you send a sample

Call the lab to confirm it's currently certified for the exact test and method, that it accepts samples from homeowners, and how to collect and ship them. Bacteria samples have short holding times. Status can change between list updates. To check a status, contact the Indiana certification program.
