Protect Your Environmental Laboratory Accreditation
CAL represents all environmental laboratories accredited by the State of California through the Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) and seeks to organize our industry and take legal action to correct the significant problems facing our industry.
Environmental laboratories today are burdened with serious challenges from the state certification processes. Inconsistencies, and a lack of professional service from the accreditation agencies, are causing critical harm to laboratories across the state. Some have even been forced to close down.
The Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) has created immense burdens on our industry for maintaining laboratory accreditations. As a nonprofit, representing our industry as a whole, CAL seeks to remedy the accreditation process and force accountability and profressionalism.
