There are many references, but here are a few good ones for decontamination of waste sampling equipment: ASTM D 5088-90. 1990. Standard Practice for Decontamination of Field Equipment Used at Nonradioactive Waste Sites. West Conshohocken, PA. USEPA. 1994. “Sampling Equipment Decontamination.” Environmental Response Team SOP #2006, Revision #0.0. Edison, NJ. USEPA. 1996. Environmental Investigations Standard Operating Procedures and Quality Assurance Manual. Region 4, Science and Ecosystem Support Division. Athens, GA. For decontamination of groundwater sampling equipment, see: USEPA. 1992. RCRA Ground-Water Monitoring: Draft Technical Guidance. EPA/530/R-93/001. Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery.
