For water quality, are you speaking about testing the potability of the
water, or for other purposes, such as research use?
CalOSHA has adopted a version of the ANSI Z 358.1, which, after much input
by a number of larger Emergency Eyewash/shower users allows for other than
weekly activation if some other programmatic approach and procedure is in
place.
