Babcock’s Riverside Laboratories and El Centro service center will be closed on Thursday, November 24th, and Friday, November 25th, in observance of Thanksgiving. All locations will reopen for regular business on Monday, November 28th.
To ensure continued quality service when transporting and delivering temperature sensitive samples with short holding time methods, we ask you to please keep this holiday closure in mind. Samples should be submitted to the Riverside location no later than 5:00 PM Wednesday, November 23rd. For the El Centro service center, all samples should be submitted by 2:00 PM, Wednesday, November 23rd.
For microbiology samples submitted on Wednesday, November 23rd, clients will need to provide an office and cell phone number at which they can be reached on Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 24th, if their drinking water sample(s) for Microbiology results exceed the Maximum Containment Levels (MCLs). In this situation, Babcock Laboratories’ Analysts will need to make a verbal confirmation with the client. If Babcock Laboratories cannot get ahold of the client, we must notify the Office of Emergency Services.
Additionally, please place bottle orders and requests for sampling supplies well in advance to avoid delays and expedite your sample delivery experience.
The entire Babcock Team thanks you for your continued business and support. Please contact your Project Manager if you have any questions.
