Rule 37.12.304 - LABORATORY LICENSURE: COVERAGE(1) A laboratory that conducts analyses of water from public water supplies must meet the licensure requirements of these rules before the analyses or reports of the analyses may be accepted by the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for the purpose of meeting the requirements of Title 75, chapter 6, MCA, and rules of the DEQ concerning public water supplies.(2) A laboratory may be licensed to perform microbiology testing, chemical testing, or both. Microbiology testing and chemical testing are separate licensure categories. If a laboratory requests licensure for both categories, it must submit to the department a separate license application and undergo a separate inspection for each category, and it will receive a separate license for each category for which it qualifies.(3) A license granted by the department constitutes permission to perform only those analyses of analytes and using only those methods for which the laboratory requests the licensure to cover and that the department finds the laboratory is capable of performing in accordance with the provisions of this subchapter.Mont.
