Abstract
Two fish kills occurred on Boone Reservoir, Tennessee, which were ultimately traced to a toxic compound of mercury entering the reservoir inadvertently from steel drums used as floatation devices. Because of the interest in this problem, the Southeast Region sponsored a meeting with all interest agencies to discuss this problem and outline any potential methods for control.
