Old list: check before you rely on it

EGLE's out-of-state, radiological, in-state PFAS, out-of-state PFAS and Cryptosporidium lists are dated 9/8/2025, more than 12 months before we fetched them on Nov 2, 2026, though EGLE's program page still links them. Labs and analytes on them may have changed since. EGLE's chemistry, microbiological and lead and copper lists (3/11/2026) are not affected.

Around this lab: St. Joseph County, IN

  • Private wells: about 76,774 people, 29% of St. Joseph County’s 268,441 residents (USGS, 2015); rank 3 of 92 counties in Indiana by people on wells.
  • At house sale: St. Joseph County Department of Health has a septic system and well rule (St. Joseph County property transfer ordinance / Property Transfer Standards (changes effective 2024-07-01)). What it requires
  • 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 5,356 private-well users (95% range 4,096 to 7,061; 2010 base), rank 8 of 92 in the state. A screening estimate, not a measurement of any well.
  • Older homes (Census ACS 2020–2024): 64% of 118,580 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): 6 public systems serving this county reported EPA UCMR 5 results; 3 had a PFOA or PFOS sample at or above 4.0 ng/L.

County figures describe where the lab is, not the lab. Sources: USGS 2015 water use and 2017 arsenic estimates, EPA radon zones, Census ACS table B25034 (2020–2024), EPA UCMR 5 (2023–2026); details and links on the sources page.

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 Michigan certification program.
