Sampling of sludge, treated biowaste, and soils in the landscape - Part 4: Guidance on procedures for sample packaging, storage, preservation, transport and delivery cen:proj:28543

Scope

This Technical Report describes procedures for the packaging, preservation, short-term storage and transport of samples of sewage sludge, and treated biowaste, and soils in the landscape. Short-term storage is the time between sampling and the start of analysis. Where available and appropriate for field application, requirements for specific storage conditions and/or preservation methods should be selected from the chosen analytical standard and collaboration with the testing laboratory.
