The selection of sampling equipment for the collection of liquid waste is based on factors such as the viscosity of the sample matrix, matrix compatibility with the construction materials of the sampling device, and the physical location of the sampling point. This report provides information relating to sampling from such matrices as ground and surface waters, vadose zones, containerized liquids, lagoons, and seeps. It is intended to be a reference tool for personnel involved with the collection of liquid samples throughout the Department of Energy complex. This report provides a general overview of many liquid sampling devices used and for each device it provides a short narrative regarding applicability, an outline of the basic procedure for use, a list of advantages and disadvantages, and an illustration.
