Laboratory Practices Committee

The Laboratory Practices Committee has three main goals, we:

  1. Encourage Laboratory Professionals’ participation in NEWEA events, publications, etc.
  2. Provide a forum for the exchange of information regarding standard laboratory practices in New England
  3. Provides a liaison to the Operations Challenge Committee to manage the Operations Challenge Lab Event

The Laboratory Practices Committee meets twice a year at the Annual Conference and once at the Spring Meeting; and also provides judges for and oversees the Operations Challenge Lab Event. During the year, the Committee discusses current topics of interest to the group via conference call, as well as produces a Specialty Conference on Laboratory issues. The Lab Practices Committee is under the guidance of the Treatment, System Operations and Management Council Director.
