SOURCE TESTING ASSOCIATION | Annual Guide 2015 22 * The Environment Agency recognises that European and International Standards may need supplementing by Method Implementation Documents (MIDs) to ensure they are being implemented consistently. They have established the Monitoring Certification Scheme: MCERTS to deliver quality environmental measurements. Organisations wishing to include a Standard in their schedule of MCERTS accreditation shall follow the requirements of the Standard and, where available, the associated MID. It may not be necessary to produce a MID for every Standard but where required they will be used to supplement Standards called up by Technical Guidance Note M2. MIDs provide details on how the preferred Standards shall be used for regulatory monitoring. MIDs are produced in collaboration with the Source Testing Association (STA) and its members. Further guidance and advice. The STA provides guidance to its membership and their clients. This includes methodology advice, guidance on equipment selection and training. Visit the STA web site for details www.s-t-a.org or for any technical question contact airanswers@s-t-a.org or telephone +44 (0)1462 457535.
