English Abstract A proper design of groundwater monitoring networks on
provincial level requires well defined objectives and information on the
areas to be monitored. Basically these networks have the same objectives as
the national groundwater quality monitoring network. Since the start at
about 1980 the national network is methodologically organizationally and
administratively controlled and operated by the National Institute of Public
Health and Environmental Protection. To take fully advantage of the results
of the national network it is quite clear that the provincial groundwater
monitoring networks must be compatible with the national network.
Compatability concerns the following aspects: boreholes in which the screens
are installed, method of sampling and analysis, choice of parameters and
quality control data handling and database systems. This report treats the
above mentioned subjects and indicates the standardized procedures in the
establishment of the national network and pays attention to sampling
techniques and methods for analysing the samples.
