Board approves revised bacteria testing quality-assurance policy
Summary
The Vernon County Board of Health approved a revision to its bacteria testing quality-assurance procedures after a short presentation by the director; members moved, seconded and voted to adopt the change by voice vote.
The health department presented a revised bacteria quality-assurance policy tied to upcoming on-site review with DATCAP. The director explained that yellow-highlighted language (an internal process reference) would be removed and red items implemented; staff said the revision supports the department's audit readiness and aligns on-site procedures with the laboratory reviewer's expectations.
A board member moved to approve the policy, another member seconded, and the board adopted the revision by voice vote. The director thanked staff for the work to prepare for the on-site review and acknowledged that nitrate testing certification was delayed until the fall due to staff changes.
