Free Autosamplers and Flow Meters

Last updated July 8, 2024

What We Offer

As part of the activities under our cooperative agreement with the U.S. CDC, WEF has been able to offer free automatic samplers and flow meters to rural, small, territorial, and tribal wastewater utilities over the past three years. Although utilities are not expected to participate in wastewater surveillance programs after receiving their autosampler (and flow meter, if requested), WEF collaborated with the CDC to design these free offerings to address the fact that participation in wastewater surveillance has historically skewed toward larger, well-resourced utilities.

Important Deadlines

Because our 2024 application period is now closed, there are no relevant deadlines at this time. Please check back here in late 2024 for information about the 2025 program.
