Board approves revisions to nitrate testing procedures used by county lab
Summary
The Board of Health approved revisions to departmental policy for nitrate testing (Hach Method 10206 and acidification of bottles) after a motion by Martha Olson; the motion passed unanimously.
The board reviewed proposed revisions to two departmental policies covering nitrates: "Hach Method 10206—Spectrophotometric Measurement of Nitrate" and "Acidification of Nitrate Testing Bottles." Martha Olson moved to approve the changes as written; David Eggen seconded, and the board voted all ayes. The motion carried.
Deputy Health Officer Emily Olson had earlier noted the policy revisions in the director's report as part of routine updates to sanitarian procedures. The approved changes will be incorporated into departmental practice and referenced in future reporting as needed.
