1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the field procedure for performing an in situ instantaneous change in head (slug) test.
1.2 This test method is used in conjunction with an analytical procedure such as Test Method D 4104 to determine aquifer properties.
1.3 The values stated in the SI units are to be regarded as standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
