Overview

EN ISO 5667-6:2016/A11:2020 is an essential amendment to the European Standard EN ISO 5667-6:2016, providing updated guidance on the sampling of rivers and streams for water quality analysis. Developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) under Technical Committee CEN/TC 230 "Water Analysis," this standard specifically addresses methodologies for collecting representative water samples from flowing water bodies such as rivers and streams. The amendment A11 was approved in April 2020 and aims to ensure harmonized, accurate, and reliable sampling processes across member countries.

This standard plays a crucial role for environmental scientists, water quality analysts, regulatory bodies, and water resource managers seeking to monitor natural water bodies’ conditions systematically. By following this guidance, organizations can ensure the sampling procedures align with international best practices, supporting data accuracy and comparability in water quality assessments.

Key Topics

  • Sampling Methodologies
    EN ISO 5667-6:2016/A11:2020 covers detailed procedures for discrete, composite, and continuous sampling methods suitable for flowing waters. These techniques help obtain representative samples that reflect the true status of river and stream water quality.

  • Sampling Locations
    The amendment emphasizes selecting appropriate sampling sites and highlights restrictions such as avoiding sampling directly beneath bridges unless necessary, in which case sampling should be performed upstream.

  • Compliance and Legal Aspects
    The document recognizes national deviations (A-deviations), such as those in Estonia, where specific methods may be mandated by local regulations. Users must consider these jurisdictional rules when applying the standard.

  • Quality Assurance and Control
    The guidance ensures that sample collection minimizes contamination risks and preserves sample integrity critical for accurate laboratory analysis.

  • Standard Implementation
    CEN member states are required to implement this standard as a national standard by November 2020, replacing any conflicting national standards.

Applications

This amendment to EN ISO 5667-6 is widely applied in:

  • Environmental Monitoring
    Authorities and environmental agencies employ the standardized sampling protocols to monitor river and stream water quality for compliance with environmental regulations and to detect pollution events.

  • Research and Development
    Scientists conducting hydrological and ecological studies utilize the guidance to collect consistent water samples for chemical, physical, and biological analyses.

  • Water Resource Management
    Utilities and resource managers use the sampling methods for assessing source water quality and planning effective water treatment processes.

  • Regulatory Compliance
    Laboratories and consultants follow these guidelines to prepare samples correctly, ensuring results meet regulatory and accreditation requirements.

  • Industrial and Agricultural Impact Studies
    Organizations assess potential impacts of industrial effluents and agricultural runoff on surface water quality using the standardized sampling approach.

Related Standards

To enhance the effectiveness of water sampling and analysis, EN ISO 5667-6:2016/A11:2020 is part of the broader ISO 5667 series addressing water quality sampling:

  • ISO 5667-1 – Guidance on the design of sampling programs
  • ISO 5667-3 – Guidance on sampling from lakes, natural, and man-made reservoirs
  • ISO 5667-10 – Guidance on sampling of waste waters
  • ISO 5667-11 – Guidance on sampling of groundwater

These related standards complement EN ISO 5667-6 by covering different water body types and sampling contexts, ensuring comprehensive water quality assessment methods are available to practitioners.

By adopting EN ISO 5667-6:2016/A11:2020, professionals engaged in water quality monitoring can enhance the reliability of their sampling data for rivers and streams, supporting environmental protection and sustainable water resource management across Europe and beyond.

Water quality - Sampling - Part 16: Guidance on biotesting of samples (ISO 5667-16:2017)
SIST EN ISO 5667-16:2017

ISO 5667-16:2017 gives practical guidance on sampling, pre-treatment, performance and evaluation of environmental samples in the context of performing biological tests. Information is given on how to cope with the problems of biotesting arising from the sample and the suitability of the test design.
It is intended to convey practical experience concerning precautions to be taken by describing methods successfully proven to solve or to circumvent some of the experimental problems of biotesting of, for example, waters.
Primarily dealt with are substance-related problems concerning sampling and pre-treatment of environmental samples (e.g. waste water samples) for the performance of biotests.
This guidance is on ecotoxicological testing with organisms (single-species biotests; in vivo and in vitro). Some features addressed in this document also apply to biotests using single-cell systems (in vitro bioassays) and biodegradation studies as far as sampling and sample preparations are concerned. Testing of substances in the water solubility range is also addressed.
Reference has been made as far as possible to existing International Standards and guidelines. Information taken from published papers or oral communication has been utilized as well.
ISO 5667-16:2017 is applicable to biological tests for determining the effect of environmental samples like treated communal and industrial waste water, groundwater, fresh water, aqueous extracts (e.g. leachates, eluates), pore water of sediments and whole sediments. This document is also applicable to chemical substances.
ISO 5667-16:2017 is not applicable to bacteriological examination of water. Appropriate methods for bacteriological examination are described in other documents (see ISO 19458[17]).

Water quality - Sampling - Part 6: Guidance on sampling of rivers and streams (ISO 5667-6:2014)
SIST EN ISO 5667-6:2017

ISO 5667-6:2014 sets out the principles to be applied to the design of sampling programmes, sampling techniques, and the handling of water samples from rivers and streams for physical and chemical assessment.
It is not applicable to the sampling of estuarine or coastal waters nor for microbiological sampling. (Procedures for microbiological sampling are given in ISO 19458.)
ISO 5667-6:2014 is neither applicable to the examination of sediment, suspended solids or biota, nor to dammed stretches of rivers or streams. Also, it is not applicable to passive sampling of surface waters (see ISO 5667‑23).
In cases where naturally occurring or artificially constructed dams result in the retention or storage of water for several days or more, the stretch of the river or stream should be considered as a standing water body. For sampling purposes, see ISO 5667‑4.

Water quality - Determination of nitrate in water using small-scale sealed tubes - Part 2: Chromotropic acid colour reaction (ISO 23696-2:2023)
oSIST prEN ISO 23696-2:2025

This document specifies a method for the determination of nitrate as NO3-N in water of various origin such as natural water (including groundwater, surface water and bathing water), drinking water and wastewater, in a measuring range of concentration between 0,20 mg/l and 30 mg/l of NO3-N using the small-scale sealed tube method. Different measuring ranges of small-scale sealed tube methods can be required.
The measuring ranges can vary depending on the type of the small-scale sealed tube method of different manufacturers.
It is up to the user to choose the small-scale sealed tube test with the appropriate application range or to adapt samples with concentrations exceeding the measuring range of a test by preliminary dilution.
NOTE 1   The results of a small-scale sealed tube test are most precise in the middle of the application range of the test.
Manufacturers' small-scale sealed tube methods are based on chromotropic colour reaction, depending on the typical operating procedure of the small-scale sealed tube used, see Clause 9.
NOTE 2      Laws, regulations or standards can require that the data is expressed as NO3 after conversion with the stoichiometric conversion factor 4,426 81 in Clause 11.
NOTE 3   In the habitual language, use of sewage treatment and on the displays of automated sealed-tube test devices, NO3 without indication of the negative charge has become the common notation for the parameter nitrate and especially for the parameter nitrate-N. This notation is adopted in this document even though not being quite correct chemical nomenclature.
