For a Georgia Expanded Water Test (W2)

Collect 16 ounces of water in a clean (sterilized) glass jar or bottle.

To collect your water sample (W1, W2):

Collect your water from a kitchen faucet or a faucet used most often for drinking and cooking.

A first draw water sample should be collected either early morning or evening upon returning home to ensure that the necessary 6-12 hours stagnant water conditions exist.
Place a clean sample container below the faucet and gently open the cold water tap.  Completely fill all sample bottles being careful not to contaminate the sample.  To prevent contamination, do not touch the inside of the bottle or lid.
