Suggested procedures for sending water samples to the Colorado State University Soil, Water and Plant Testing Laboratory:
- Sample containers should be plastic with a cap that can be securely fastened. The lab needs 4-6 oz. of water for analysis.
Glass Containers with metal tops should have a piece of plastic wrap placed between the container and the top.
Please do not use glass containers when mailing sample(s) to the lab.
- Containers should be clean and then rinsed with the sample itself prior to taking the sample.
- Containers should be filled with sample as much to the top as possible.
- Label the Sample with a permanent marker. If the container cannot be marked directly, place a piece of masking tape
on the bottle and mark it instead.
- Keep the sample cool preferably in a refrigerator. DO NOT FREEZE THE SAMPLE.
-Place the information sheet with the sample. It may be best to put the information sheet in a plastic bag to prevent it from
getting soaked by a leaky sample container.
- Bring or send the sample as soon as possible to the CSU Soil, Water and Plant Testing Lab (see above address).
If the sample is being mailed, refrigerate it prior to sending.
Then pack it securely with newspapers or styrofoam (be sure cap is tight) in a box for mailing.
- Send the samples on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday morning. Samples sent late Wednesday or Thursday
may not get to the lab by Friday and could sit in Central Receiving over the weekend.
- the lab does not test for microorganisms (i.e., bacteria), pesticides or herbicides.
Points to remember are:
- keep lids on tight
- mark bottle clearly
- be sure information stays together
- please include your phone number in case we need to contact you
If you have any questions about these procedures, please feel free to call us at: (970) 491-5061.
