Legionella Sampling & Response

The procedures for testing for and respond to Legionella flare-ups are not well defined in US industries.  OSHA only has general guidelines for Legionella response, whereas some European governments have strict and detailed response plans for their industries.  For the most part, it is left up to each individual site’s EHS& S or IH reps to define and execute these procedures.  In the field, there are many ways to test and treat for Legionella, specifically in open, recirculating cooling water systems.  This conversation is aimed to educate the industry on some best practices.  We will also share a testimonial of an industry partner who by adopting these best practices, was able to reduce the amount of positive Legionella tests by 70% while increasing the frequency of testing.
