Область применения

This standard is applicable to all marine areas under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China. It specifies the marine sediment quality requirements for various sea area usage functions. This standard is mandatory for all marine environmental monitoring and development projects. It categorizes marine sediments into three classes based on different usage functions and environmental protection goals, ranging from marine fisheries and nature reserves to industrial water zones and port waters.

Технические требования

The standard classifies marine sediment quality into three categories, each with specific limits for various physical, chemical, and biological parameters. It mandates that the seabed must be free of industrial and domestic waste, abnormal color, and odor, maintaining a natural structure. For biological indicators, the standard sets strict limits on coliform bacteria, fecal coliforms, and pathogens, particularly for sediments in shellfish farming areas intended for raw human consumption. Regarding chemical pollutants, the standard specifies maximum concentration limits for heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, lead, and copper. It also regulates organic compounds, including organic carbon, sulfides, petroleum hydrocarbons, and persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and *HCH* (hexachlorocyclohexane). Compliance with these specific numerical limits is essential for environmental approval.

Методы испытаний

The standard outlines the analytical methods for marine sediment samples, referencing *GB 17378.5-1998*, *GB 17378.7-1998*, and *GBJ 48-1983*. It details procedures for sample collection, preparation, and preservation. Testing methods include cold atomic absorption spectrophotometry for mercury, flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry for heavy metals, and gas chromatography for organic pollutants. Specific detection limits are established for each analytical method to ensure accuracy.
