The Water Resources Management Division of the Department of Environment and Conservation performs routine water sampling to measure the physical and chemical parameters of select water bodies in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The collection, laboratory analysis and measurement of water samples are a time consuming process. Some of the common conducting ions measured during routine sampling are sodium, calcium, chloride and sulphate.
