QUARTERLY SOC'S:
Deadline for Completion is Drawing
Near
The FDA announced in August of 1998 that bottled water must be tested for
the SOC's glyphosate, endothall, diquat and 2,3,7,8 tcdd-dioxin as specified
in EPA regulations. The FDA has indicated that bottlers must complete four
consecutive quarters of analysis for these parameters on finished product
water by February, 2002. The IBWA has revised the model code to reflect this
FDA monitoring schedule by requiring members to complete the four quarters
of testing by December, 2001.
One set of the quarterly SOC's can be included in your annual test package
so you will need to plan the best schedule to coordinate with the time your
annual testing is due. To be in compliance with this schedule, testing must
begin no later than March, 2001.
Call your laboratory representative to set up your testing schedule.
