Samples taken for analysis of groundwater quality can be altered by certain materials used in the construction of monitoring wells and even by the containers used to collect samples. Similar problems can occur with samples taken from a distribution system. Further research is needed to refine analytical procedures so that actual in situ data pertaining to organic compounds in groundwater can be obtained. Materials of concern include polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other plastics used in well casings and pipes. Five basic types of sampling devices for collection of samples from groundwater monitoring wells are described. Recommendations for organic sampling of groundwater are outlined. Includes 18 references, figures.
