Abstract
A new equipment for the collection of water percolating through the soil and bulk material constructed in 2008 was an essentially improved variant [1]. Constructed equipment/sampler is cheap to construct on the spot, their installation does not damage the soil layer and no vacuum was necessary for taking of water samples. From the beginning of 1994 our so called, “old equipment” [2, 3] is still in operation in the international integrated monitoring stations of the Estonian national programme of environmental monitoring. The new one can be used for the collection of samples of water percolating through the soil as well as heaps of bulk materials (such as grain, fuels, construction materials) of all kinds of corner. They are necessary for monitoring the condition of natural soil, as well as for the research of the changes in the physical state of soil during construction activities and redesign of relief related to the establishment of ditches, ponds, artificial hills and other objects.
