TestAmerica Laboratory Network Ready to Support Hurricane Irene Clean Up Efforts

TestAmerica, the nation’s leading laboratory network, is staffed and equipped to support the analytical needs to clean up and restore communities affected by Hurricane Irene.

Hurricanes can have an effect on the basic necessities to operate our communities, such as water and wastewater treatment plants, and access to schools and parks. Making sure that communities have the basic necessities available is the first priority in recovering from these natural events. TestAmerica’s laboratory and logistical network is on call to support the efforts of the emergency response teams assisting the affected areas.

TestAmerica has extensive experience in emergency response situations, including responses to the aftermath of previous Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Ike. TestAmerica’s network of laboratories consists of facilities within and surrounding the potentially affected path of Hurricane Irene, and are on the ready to provide support if it is needed.
