Significance and Use | ||||||||||||||||||||
5.1 This practice is intended to assist field personnel in obtaining samples from tanks for laboratory analysis. The cost associated with sampling and analysis make it essential that samples be taken correctly before submitting them for chemical analysis, physical testing, or both. Incorrect sampling can invalidate resulting data. 5.2 This practice provides guidance in choosing the sampling technique and equipment suitable for specific situations. It is recommended that this guide be used as a supplement to a written field sampling plan. 5.3 The procedures for sampling tanks using a COLIWASA, liquid profiler sampler, Bacon Bomb sampler, and peristaltic pump and tubing are delineated. |
