Water Sampling

What we do

View pages in this section

Online Form - Water Pollution Enquiries

Water is an essential part of the food industry and the Council samples private water supplies at various premises throughout the area for conformity with the Regulations.

The authority liaises regularly with the public mains water providers (Severn Trent Water and South Staffordshire Water Plc). In addition, staff contribute to and participate in local authority liaison meetings held by the water companies. They also take part in outbreak control plans and training.

The Plan

The Council's nominated analysts for water samples are:-

  • Bacteriological analysis: HPA Laboratory, Heartlands Hospital, Birmingham
  • Chemical analysis: Seven Trent Laboratories, Torrington Avenue Coventry. 

A water sampling programme is declared each year in the Commercial Enforcement and Licensing section's work programme and covers the following activities:-

  • Private Water Supplies
  • E C Testing

The parameters tested and the frequency of testing is indicated in the sampling programme

All sampling in respect of water supplies will normally be carried out as part of the normal operational work of the section.
