Water Quality Monitoring

Water sampling and testing is a necessary component of many development, habitat rehabilitation, and reclamation projects. Water sampling can inform decisions about: drinking water, wastewater treatment, ecosystem health, harvesting regimes (especially shellfish), operational windows, and recreational areas by providing information on contaminants, nutrient levels, organic matter, and several other parameters. Pacificus Biological Services Ltd. has qualified staff and the necessary equipment to execute sampling regimes as proposed. We can work with government agencies and are informed about legislated sampling requirements. Pacificus works with clients to ensure monitoring requirements are met and that timely information is presented.
