From page 45...
... The test methods used by the agencies in corrosion condition evaluations appear to be adequate; however, no information on the quality of these evaluations is available. REQUIREMENTS FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF CATHODIC PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY Based on the results of the survey and the literature review, the following would improve the quality of the implementation and increase the confidence in the technology, thereby resulting in an increase in its use.
