This new edition features 180 ASTM guides, practices, and test methods for environmental site characterization, drawn from the work of the following ASTM committees: D18 on Soil and Rock; D19 on Water; D34 on Waste Management; E47 on Biological Effects and Environmental Fate; and E50 on Environmental Assessment, Risk Management, and Corrective Action.

All of these standards can be used in site characterization plans to satisfy state, local, and federal regulators during investigations of hazardous waste sites and evaluations of contaminant migration in the environment . In addition, these standards provide valuable guidance to use with CERCLA, RCRA, and petroleum release site investigations and to develop accelerated and expedited site characterization procedures.

A key resource for developing work plans, field sampling plans, sampling analysis plans, and quality assurance plans!
