In turn, knowledge about water quality can provide information about possible sources of groundwater contamination or contaminating run-off. Investigation of groundwater and surface water quality is outside of the scope of this document; relevant guidance is given in the ISO&nbsp;5667&nbsp;series of standards. ISO&nbsp;15175 provides guidance on the relationship between soil properties and groundwater quality.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>NOTE&nbsp;2 It could also be appropriate to investigate ambient air, vegetation, potable water supplies and a variety of other media depending on the findings of the preliminary investigation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Soil quality.
