ASSESSMENT
The tools developed by CRREL for explosives residues sampling have been
valuable assets in our range contamination and sustainability studies. They have
evolved as sampling strategies have been optimized, allowing us to take advan-
tage of improved sampling methodologies. Sampling is now much easier and
efficient, and sample quality has improved in part due to the new tools. Although
the basic designs have been established, work is continuing on optimizing the
tools for field use.
