1 Many of the parameters listed in the table below must be analyzed and reported to DES. Please pay close attention to the footnotes on page 6 which further explain the sampling requirements. The water system is responsible for sample collection, reporting, and ensuring that the correct analytical methods are used. Please visit to review the sample collection and preservation guidance document. Please contact DES Drinking Water and Groundwater Bureau at (603) with questions regarding drinking water compliance. Click on: to verify which labs are accredited by DES to perform analysis on drinking water samples. The laboratory must: 1. Use EPA approved drinking water methods specified in 40 CFR 141, 142, and Have current drinking water accreditation for analyses 3.
