CARO’s Richmond divison just received CALA accreditation for a wide range of new analyses inflatable slide.  Of note, we are now accredited for pesticides and herbicides in water and solid matrices. This includes the organophosphorus, organochlorine and carbamate pesticides, organonitrogen and acid herbicides, as well as Diquat/Paraquat, and Glyphosate. We are proud to be the only laboratory in BC with this distinction.  Our accreditation now covers over 95% of the latest Canadian Drinking Water Quality Guidelines.  As well, detection limits meet guidelines specified in the BCMOE CSR, Alberta Tier 1 and CCME regulations.

We also expanded our accrediation scope to more conprehensively support “contaminated site” related testing parameters in BC and Alberta.   For a complete listing of CARO’s Richmond Scope of Accreditation, click here.
