The Federal Interagency Sedimentation Project (FISP) has developed, tested, and produced standardized sediment and water-quality sampling equipment for Agencies of the United States Government for over 80 years.
To serve state and local government agencies, international government agencies, private organizations and companies, and individuals FISP has made arrangements with the following companies to act as authorized distributors of FISP samplers and associated equipment. All FISP equipment can be purchased from any one of the companies. It is important to specify FISP manufactured and produced equipment when ordering from the distributors. This will ensure that all equipment has been fabricated to FISP standards and has been checked for proper function by the FISP staff.
Technical information on FISP equipment may be obtained by contacting the FISP Chief, Tim Straub, at telephone number (217) 621-9587 or by sending an E-mail message to tdstraub@usgs.gov.
