This part of ISO 5667 specifies the principles for the establishment of sampling programs, sampling techniques and the handling of water samples from streams for physical and chemical evaluation. It does not apply to sampling from estuaries and coastal waters or to microbiological sampling. NOTE 1 The procedures for microbiological sampling are specified in ISO 19458 [10]. This part of ISO 5667 does not apply to the study of sediment, suspended solids or biota, or to impounded stretches of watercourses. It also does not apply to the use of passive samplers in surface waters (see ISO 5667-23). NOTE 2 If natural or artificial dams are used to retain or store water for a few days or longer, it should be considered whether the stretch of watercourse should not be better considered as a standing body of water in relation to the sampling purpose, see ISO 5667-4.
