1.3 The number of samples to be taken, their nominal sample weight, and their disposition shall be agreed upon between the parties.
1.4 The scope of this practice does not include provisions for preventing criticality incidents.
1.5 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.
