Tests on the state list

This list does not break certification down by analyte. Ask the lab which tests it is certified for; the groups as written on the list are below.

• Named on the official list The state list names this analyte (or a column for it) for this lab.
• Group-level certification Certified for a parent group (e.g. 'Inorganics') that includes this analyte. Confirm the specific test with the lab.
• Partial group certification The list marks the group as 'Partial'. Confirm this analyte with the lab.
• Subcontracted The lab sends this analyte to another accredited lab (MDH 'X*').

RIDOH's out-of-state list gives certification categories only ("Contact the Certification Officer for specific analytes/methods"): organic and inorganic chemistry and radiochemistry name no analyte, so no nitrate, arsenic, lead, metals, VOC, uranium or radon certification is shown. Ask the lab.

Nearest labs that take homeowner samples

Around this lab: Monroe County, NY

• Private wells: about 241,243 people, 32% of Monroe County’s 749,600 residents (USGS, 2015); rank 3 of 62 counties in New York by people on wells.

• EPA radon zone (indoor air): Zone 2: moderate potential (average indoor radon may be between 2 and 4 pCi/L). EPA says the zone map should not decide whether one home needs testing.
• Arsenic above 10 µg/L (USGS model): about 654 private-well users (95% range 545 to 844; 2010 base), rank 33 of 62 in the state. A screening estimate, not a measurement of any well.
• Older homes (Census ACS 2020–2024): 69% of 339,430 housing units were built before 1980, below the state share of 74%. 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): 5 public systems serving this county reported EPA UCMR 5 results; 0 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 Rhode Island certification program.
