Sludge, treated biowaste, and soils in the landscape - Sampling - Framework for the preparation and application of a sampling plan cen:proj:27062

Scope

This European Standard specifies the procedural steps to be taken in the preparation and application of a sampling plan. The sampling plan describes the method of collection of the laboratory sample necessary for meeting the objective of the testing programme.
This European Standard is applicable to sampling of sludge, treated biowaste, and soil in the landscape.
There might be a need for more than one sampling plan to meet all the requirements of the testing programme. Ultimately the sampling plan provides detailed instructions on how sampling should be carried out.
NOTE Although this European Standard in most cases refers to the taking of one sample or increment or the preparation of one laboratory sample, it should be noted that often this might be more than one. For simplicity reasons this European Standard uses singular terms; plural terms can also be inferred.
