Old list: check before you rely on it
DHHS's list prints no date, but the PDF file itself was created in May 2024, more than a year before we fetched it on Nov 3, 2026. Labs and analytes on it may have changed since (editor, 2026-11-03).

DHHS prints "(by reciprocity)" after the name: Nebraska certifies this lab by reciprocity, on the basis of its certification elsewhere. DHHS prints "VOCs" with the method (EPA 524.2) but names no compound, so VOCs are shown as a certified group, not as named tests. DHHS lists these certified analytes and methods: Total Coliform/E.coli (Quanti-tray 2000 SM9223B); Nitrate as N (EPA 300.0); Nitrite as N (SM4500-NO2-B); Nitrate/Nitrite as N (EPA 353.2); Copper (EPA 200.8); Lead (EPA 200.7); VOCs (EPA 524.2); Floride (EPA 300.0). No expiry date or phone number is printed. DHHS prints "Floride" (fluoride).

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 Nebraska certification program.
