Disclaimer Statement
Testing performed by the Kansas State University (“K-State”) Water Quality Lab (“Lab”) is intended for screening, research, and/or informational purposes only. Unless expressly stated otherwise, in writing, tests performed by the Lab are not conducted under U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), Kansas Department of Health and Environment (“KDHE”), or other accredited methods or regulatory compliance programs, and test results should only be interpreted in the context of the applicable method, sample type, and intended use. Results generated by the Lab do not constitute regulatory certification, compliance determination, or legal/forensic evidence, and results should not be interpreted or represented as results from an EPA-, KDHE-, or otherwise-accredited laboratory. K-State, the Lab, and their affiliates, personnel, and agents do not make regulatory determinations or certify compliance with any federal, state, or local water-quality laws or other requirements, nor do such K-State parties warrant or represent the results as representative of the potential for any regulatory or other compliance requirements. When testing is required for regulatory or compliance purposes, samples should be separately analyzed by an appropriately accredited laboratory.
