This standard describes types of microorganisms, mechanisms by which MIC occurs, methods of testing for the presence of bacteria, research results, and interpretation of testing results for external surfaces of buried, ferrous-based metal pipelines and related components. Appendixes are included for media specifications (nonmandatory Appendix A), dilution procedures (nonmandatory Appendix B), and site inspection and testing (nonmandatory Appendix C). This standard is maintained Task Group 237.
