A second Committee Draft of ISO 18400-104 which provides guidance on investigation and sampling strategies has been published for comment. This is an important standard because it will in due course replace (BS) ISO 10381-2 and become “normative” in BS 10175, i.e. essential for its proper application.
The present draft is a much revised version of the earlier draft issued towards the end of last year.
The main text is comparatively short but there are lengthy informative annexes. Any comments would be very welcome even if they refer to a single paragraph or short section of the draft.
The closing date for comments to be received by BSI is 1 September 2015
Copies of the draft standards together with a comment template can be obtained from the Secretary of BSI Committee EH4 – Soil quality jessy.matthew@bsigroup.com or michael.a.smith@btinternet.com
