Last opportunity to comment on the proposed update to BS 10175+A2:2017 BS 10175+A2 Investigation of potentially contaminated sites. Code of practice as the period for comment ends on the 11 September. This update primarily addresses the publication of the BS ISO 18400 series of standards on soil quality – sampling. Interestingly it has also taken the opportunity to introduce a sub-clause on safety and asbestos but as this is not a full technical revision none of the other guidance aspects anticiapted for investigating asbestos contaminated soils have been covered. The proposed draft changes can be seen at https://standardsdevelopment.bsigroup.com/projects/2017-02021. [Note: if after logging in the proposed documentation is not immediately visible use the search box with the term “contaminated land”]
