Acting DEP Secretary Tours DEP Lab, Meets With Staff

DEP Acting Secretary John Quigley toured the department’s nationally accredited Bureau of Laboratories in Harrisburg on January 28 and talked with staff about their analytical work that supports Pennsylvania’s environmental programs.

Quigley toured the various sections of the lab that provide inorganic, organic, radiation and biological services, and got a look at DEP’s four mobilabs that provide on-site environmental testing during environmental emergencies.

DEP’s Bureau of Laboratories logs on average about 1 million tests per year.  That’s 4,000 tests per working day with about 50 analysts on the job. 

Their work is featured in one of DEP’s educational videos posted on the department’s YouTube channel.
