Requesting additional Environmental Standards
ESdat comes with commonly used regulatory Environmental Standards compiled by ESdat Support for all users.
Users can request additional Regulatory Environmental Standards be compiled, and ESdat Support will consider compiling these on behalf of users where multiple organisations will benefit. If multiple users are requesting the same Regulatory Environmental Standard ESdat Support will look to compile the standard as described below. In some cases users will need to add their own regulatory Environmental Standards.
Requests should be made via the ESdat linkedin group at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4122096/ or the Support Forum https://support.esdat.net/Support_Portal/ESdat_Forum.html.
Each request should include:
Name of the Environmental Standard to Upload:
URL to the Regulatory Agency Environmental Standards overview page:
For each table that needs to be compiled (if more than one):
- Document URL
- Name
- Table #
- Pages
- Priority (1-5)
- Is data in a Suitable Layout? A Suitable Layout is:
A table in PDF or Excel format
A table of Analytes and Trigger values (or a similar tabular layout).
Examples are at:

https://www.nj.gov/dep/standards/ground%20water.pdf
If Environmental Standards can't be provided in a Suitable Layout users may be asked to compile the standards themselves.
