In addition approx. 100-1,000 analyses of environmental parameters shall be carried out (such as cereal distribution, pH, condition classes, iron (II/III), phosphates, nitrate, sulphate/sulphate, humin substances, fulvinic acid, cation exchange capacity, TOC, PFAS and leakage tests). The laboratory shall offer sample preparation, storage for at least 6 months (with an option for an extension), return of samples as needed and provide transport with the necessary permits.
