Potential sources of error in ground-water sampling at hazardous waste sites. Ground water issue

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5335942
The Regional Superfund Ground Water Forum is a group of ground-water scientists representing the U.S. EPA's Regional Superfund Offices that was organized to exchange up-to-date information related to ground-water remediation at Superfund sites. The paper is intended to familiarize RPMs, OSCs, and field personnel with the sources of error inherent to ground-water sampling, and the relative impact of these errors on sample representativeness. Elements of typical sampling protocol will be discussed in relation to how these sources of error can be identified and minimized.
