The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) has released the final Incremental Sampling Methodology and Applications reference guide. The MDEQ guide can be used by environmental professionals as a technical reference for using incremental sampling method (ISM) techniques to evaluate contaminated land while managing risk and future use. ISM is also known as Multi-Incremental Sampling (MIS), Incremental Composite Sampling (ICS), or Incremental Sampling Methodology (IS).
