Environmental technology verification report: Soil sampler. Art`s Manufacturing and Supply AMS dual tube liner sampler

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:350472

This document summarizes the results of a demonstration of the AMS{trademark} Dual Tube Liner Sampler. In 1997, EPA conducted a field test of the AMS{trademark} Dual Tube Liner Sampler. The performance of this system was compared to a reference subsurface soil sampling method (hollow-stem auger drilling and split-spoon sampling) in terms of the following parameters: sample recovery, VOC concentrations in recovered samples, sample integrity, reliability and throughput, and cost. Data quality indicators for precision, accuracy, representativeness of the data. A complete description of the demonstration, including a data summary and discussion of results is available in the report.
