This is an in field, location specific certification that evaluates real world systems through a structured process of design review, installation verification, performance testing, and on site inspection. The program confirms that a system incorporates the required four step process defined in Standard 63, including prefiltration, a calming inlet, a floating intake, and a skimming overflow. Together, these elements provide the foundation for achieving validated multi log reduction performance and consistent water quality outcomes.

By certifying systems in the field, this program provides verifiable proof that an installed system meets Standard 63 requirements, helping to ensure safe, reliable performance while supporting regulatory confidence and broader code adoption. Systems that successfully complete the certification process receive an ARCSA System Certification Label and supporting documentation, giving system owners, engineers, facility operators, and regulators added confidence that the system has been independently evaluated and verified against a recognized national standard. 

Those interested in having a system evaluated can begin the process by submitting an application for Standard 63 System Certification and in field labeling. Applicants must provide design documentation, system details, and installation information as outlined in the application packet.
