State lab consolidation is taking shape

Charleston, W.V. Mark Scott, Secretary, Administration Department, provided the MPs with a recent update to the project status which is getting out of the ground at West Virginia Technology Park in South Charleston.

Scott explained, “Most of the site has been approved and we are going to determine if we may need four or five more acres of land, but it is much better than cleaning the entire site,” Scott explained.

The design for the new lab facility is still being completed. This will include laboratories of seven state agencies along the University of Marshal and West Virginia. Scott indicated that there may also be an additional laboratory to adjust the capacity of the temporary needs of private business or other laboratories.

Although there will be some shared places such as toilet and lobby areas, each laboratory will be self-contained and strictly controlled by the agency.

“They must maintain their autonomy so that they can maintain their security on a series of custody,” Scott said.

The lab building will be close to 300,000 sq ft and it will appear above the hill in Tech Park from Interstate 64.


“It will be the diamond of the technical part after it is completed. I think this is something we are going to be proud of, ”he said.

This facility will be a place for the office of laboratory services of the Health Department, which will currently be drawn into the building in different places. Partition of Labor’s office will take its laboratory from St. Elbans to the Department of Wait and Measures. The building of the State Police and Homeland Security Department will have attendance with their forensic lab. The state medical examiner will also get a new place to leave the old and tight quarters which is currently located on the west side of Charlston.

Scott added WVU and Marshall has also been pulled to the project where they will have a laboratory appearance that will be largely conceived for training purposes. However, one of the original state laboratories involved in the project, West Virginia Department of Agriculture, will not be part of the convenience. State Agriculture Commissioner Kent Lyonhart has opposed its agency, which is putting its laboratory services under the roof similar to the state government. Governor Jim Justice, however, has called upon the Agricultural Laboratory Department to transfer the institute to the campus of West Virginia State University.

Scott also noted that the laboratories run by the Department of Environmental Protection are currently being phased and although the project part is no longer involved.
