Determine sampling locations and methods, and collect water or wastewater samples for analysis, preserving samples with appropriate containers and preservation methods.
Task automation exposure
Very low exposure
Exposure basis
[v4/median] score 8 (raw 8 | A 8 / B 5 / C 10 | modality: physical_primary) Planning sampling locations can be software‑assisted, but physically collecting and preserving water samples still requires human field work, as autonomous samplers are not widely deployed across typical employers. (capable: None - human-led)

How much of this task's output current AI can produce or substantially assist.
Best current model strength on any capability this task requires.
This is an assessment of technical feasibility plus published evidence - not a forecast. Even fully automatable tasks are often not automated, because of cost, verification, liability, regulation or the fact that the task is bundled with other work.
